Fishing is better than sex
Okay, not really. But hear us out — Fishing might not actually be better than sex, but it comes with some undeniable perks. Let’s dive into why fishing is a surefire way to reel in some peace of mind.
1. Fresh Air Does Wonders for Your Soul
Ever notice how a breath of fresh air can feel like hitting the reset button on your brain? Spending time near a lake, river, or ocean is like nature’s version of aromatherapy. Plus, studies show that being outdoors reduces stress and boosts happiness. So whether you’re casting off at sunrise or sitting by the water watching your line, fishing is a guaranteed way to breathe easier (and maybe catch dinner while you’re at it).
2. Vitamin D: The Sunshine Superpower
Sunlight isn’t just good for your tan — it’s a key source of vitamin D, which supports everything from your immune system to your mood. Grab your tackle box, slap on some sunscreen, and let the sun work its magic while you wait for that nibble.
Pro Tip: Keep hydrated with our Stainless Steel Water Bottle with Sports Lid (available here). Perfect for staying cool while the fish are biting!
3. Fishing Is the OG Meditation
Picture this: You’re sitting in a boat or on the shore, the water’s calm, and the only sounds are birds, the breeze, and the occasional plop of your line hitting the water. It’s a mindfulness exercise in disguise. You’re focused, patient, and in tune with nature — basically a Zen master with a rod and reel.

4. It’s Fun for All Ages
Fishing is one of those rare activities that’s enjoyable whether you’re 5 or 95. Teach your kids to fish, and you’re creating memories that will last a lifetime. (Bonus: It’s a great way to get them off their screens for a bit.)

5. It’s Budget-Friendly and Low Pressure
Let’s be real: Fancy vacations and spa days are nice, but they’re not always easy on the wallet. Fishing, on the other hand, is a pastime that doesn’t require breaking the bank. All you need is a rod, some bait, and a good spot to cast your line. (Of course, a rugged phone case like our Largemouth Bass Pattern Tough Phone Case here helps, too — while it’s not waterproof, it’ll still provide extra protection for those accidental splashes.)
6. It’s a Great Excuse to Unplug
Fishing gives you the perfect excuse to put your phone on airplane mode and just be. No notifications, no emails, no endless doomscrolling. Just you, the water, and the fish. Doesn’t that sound nice?
