You Matter

I just learned the fishing community in my state has been hit again with another sudden loss. Without going into any details, I wanted to share a few helpful encouraging words in case you or someone you might know is struggling.

 

Winter can be hard on us all, days are long and dark - especially for those who fish hard in the summer!

 

If you or someone you know is struggling, here are a few resources that can help. If you’d like to add any resources that I might’ve missed, please add them in the comments.

 

- Call OR text 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline

- The National Mental Health Hotline: (800) 662-HELP (4357)

- National Alliance Mental Illness (NAMI): (800) 950-6264 OR Text Helpline to 62640

- CRISIS Text: Home to 741-741
