Quality You Can Count On
We know that outdoorsmen and women appreciate quality gear, and that extends to our stationary. Each 5" x 7" folded card is crafted from premium matte cardstock, giving it a rugged, high-quality feel that stands out from the standard store-bought options. The front features the iconic line, "YOUR ROD BENT BEFORE YOUR BRAIN CAUGHT UP," while the inside delivers the punchline: "The bluegill did not wait for you to process it. Neither did your knees. Congratulations!" We’ve also left the inside left panel blank, so you have plenty of room to write a personal note about the day’s haul.
Everything is printed and shipped right here in the USA. We offer the card in multiple colors to match your style, all starting at just $6.99. To keep things simple, we offer a flat $7.99 shipping rate, and if you bundle your card with other gear from , shipping is completely free on all orders over $75.
