This mom and pop life ain’t for the weak! That’s why is important for us Country Store folk to stick together. A visit from our amazing friends over at Hollis Country Store is JUST what the doctor ordered. “Family owned and operated” is more than a catchphrase.

April is the perfect time to book that guided Tenkiller fishing trip you’ve been dreaming of! Josh Teply Fishing is the best of the best. Don’t miss out!

Man… I just want to say THANK YOU. 🙏🎣

Between guiding, electronics trips, and everything going on — you guys have me booked solid through the end of March. That’s a blessing I don’t take lightly.

Every message, every share, every trip means more than you probably realize. I get to wake up and do what I love because of YOU.

Now with spring creeping closer and fish getting ready to do their thing, I’m starting to look at April dates. That time of year fishes completely different — less staring at screens, more instincts, more decision making… but there’s still ways to use your electronics when they start getting around the bank and setting up shallow.

If you’ve been thinking about getting on the water this spring, now’s the time to start planning.

Seriously though… thank you for the support, the laughs, and trusting me with your time on the lake. Let’s keep rolling. 💪🚤
