February Is Brutal for a Tackle Shop

February isn’t lights-out striper fishing.


It’s grind fishing.


You might scratch out one or two. But it’s not wide open. And that’s okay.



This is the time to:

  • Re-spool

  • Upgrade leaders

  • Stock up on Wild Things

  • Dial in your spring kit


At CatchHappy.co, we’ve curated the exact setups you’ll need when the bite turns on.

Because when Spring hits - you don’t want to be scrambling.


You want to be ready.

👉 Stock up now at CatchHappy.co


Spring striper season waits for no one.

Thanks for supporting small local tackle shops. It means more than you know.
