    Good morning to all.. I am a North American Fishing Club "Life Member", and I am glad to be one! I became a life member, not to get a bunch of free stuff, but to share, laugh, explore the wonderful  life passion of fishing and those who share that feeling. Philosophically speaking, fishing is not really a sport, but a way of life, a passion if you will, for a predator that God put here to both feed us, and to entertain. I am 45 (young in some circles), and have been fishing since I was old enough to stand up and hold a rod When I am not fishing, I am reading, watching  tv shows, or researching on the web . I have caught most  (not all) species of freshwater fish that you can think of all over the country, and a few over seas when I was in the military. Have also caught many different species of saltwater fish, so it is not a club to me, but a state of the heart, a lifelong passion that I will  carry to my death, and I strive everyday to share this passion with those who feel the same, and to bring others to the pursuit as well.. May all your fishing trips be successful.... Happy Fishing

    Very well said. The free stuff is ok, not really gotten much of anything worth while. But I have definately learned a lot from the NAFC since I joined in 1994. The life membership just helps so that I don't have to pay anymore.
    Fishing and trains, what else is there? BASEBALL!

I wish I could try a few other species like redfish or stripers but in WI we get some nice fish to!! I love this sport and the challenges that we all face to become better!! This is the COMPLETE stress reliever for myself to get away from work and life somedays haha but well put!!
