As we begin 2026, I’ve found myself slowing down and thinking about what really mattered along the way.
Not the plans or the outcomes, but the people—the conversations, the notes that landed at the right time, the familiar faces at races and put-ins, and the friendships that formed simply because we all loved being on the water.
Before going further, I want to share this clearly: Giant Fish will be coming to a close.
Once the remaining inventory is gone, the brand will end—not sold or continued in another form, but finished with care.
It feels like the right moment to bring this chapter to a thoughtful end.
Giant Fish started as an idea, but it became something real because of the community around it.
You offered feedback, encouragement, and patience as the brand evolved.
That kind of support is rare, and it meant more than I can fully put into words.
I’m carrying a deep sense of gratitude forward—for the trust, the kindness, and the friendships that grew along the way.
Giant Fish gave me more than I ever expected, largely because of the people who believed in it.
Thank you for being part of that story.
I hope our paths cross again—on the water or somewhere unexpected.
Dip your paddles in.
Best from the west.
