Fishing Buddies of 2025 (Cartoon Style)

Apparently, I fish with a ton of people every year. Not that I keep track (okay, fine, I do), but in 2024 I fished with 66 different humans. I honestly thought that was a number that would stand the test of time…it didn’t. Here in 2025, I went down a rabbit hole and started counting again…and yep, we’re closing in on 70 different fishing partners. Seventy!

Truth is, I can barely remember who I fished with last week (sorry if I forgot your epic net job). So, what’s the solution? Memorialize each one of you in the most accurate way possible…as a cartoon character. Because nothing says “thanks for setting lines and eating my donuts” like being immortalized with giant eyes, exaggerated features, and maybe a fish tucked under your arm.

This is my little treat back to all of you. You showed up, you reeled in (or lost) a few fish, you put up with me rambling about Soup Club, and now you live forever in cartoon glory.

Scroll down, find yourself, laugh at yourself, and maybe even use it as your new profile pic. Don’t say I never gave you anything.
