For those of you who haven’t heard, we made a major announcement last week about our brand new mobile site, which is viewable at TakeMeFishing.org/mobile from smartphones, giving access to TakeMeFishing.org’s best assets right in the palm of your hand.

The shortest day and longest night of the year mark the official first day of winter. In North America, that occurs today (December 21).
