About Us

At Fisherman's Hub, we understand that fishing isn't just a pastime; it's a deeply enriching experience that can positively impact mental wellbeing. Our commitment to the angling community goes beyond providing fishing information and resources. We recognize that the act of fishing can have profound effects on mental health and well-being, and we aim to promote this connection through our platform.

Our Story

Fisherman's Hub was born out of a shared passion for the art of fishing. Our founder, Adwait & Gajanand, spent their childhood summers fishing in Mandrem albeit seperately, with Gajanand deeply rooted in the activity, he having lived in the coastal village of Mandrem since birth. Adwait used to visit Mandrem, his deity village for Ganesh Chaturthy and Ramnavmi and used to head our fishing at these times. They met about 15 years back and struck off , heading out to the waters and creating unforgettable memories by the water's edge. Over time, they realized the need for a platform where anglers of all levels could come together to share their experiences, learn from one another, and find the best fishing gear (New or used so that they could exchange it with one another). Another issue that lead to the early genesis of Fishermanshub was the fact that anglers at times barely use their gear before going on to buy new gear and thus there was ample scope to get them to exchange gear among themselves and thus maximize its life cycle - A cause that can go far to reduce carbon footprint and is environment positive.

In 2020, Fisherman's Hub was established as an online resource for fishing enthusiasts. What began as a small blog to share fishing tips, techniques, stories and a place where anglers could exchange or sell their used gear has evolved into a thriving community and an online store offering the finest fishing equipment and accessories.

Who We Are:

Fisherman's Hub is a community of passionate anglers, but we're also advocates for the mental health benefits that fishing can provide and are promoters of gear recycling thru maximizing its usage. We believe that the soothing rhythm of waves, the serenity of a quiet lakeside, and the thrill of reeling in a catch can do wonders for one's mental and emotional state and that it can be done responsibly. Our team consists of individuals who have personally experienced these benefits, and we are dedicated to sharing this knowledge and fostering an environment where fishing and mental well-being are intertwined.

What We Offer for Mental Wellbeing:

We explore the calming effects of being close to water, the mindfulness that fishing demands, and the sense of achievement when you make a catch. Our articles delve into how fishing can reduce stress, alleviate anxiety, and enhance mental clarity.

Nice products with fast delivery

Thank you for your kind words! We are so glad to hear that you are enjoying your Lucana Popping Frog Lure and that our delivery was quick. We appreciate your support and hope you continue to have success with our products. Happy fishing!

weight of the lure should be increased up to 14 gm. The lure has good action, but the rattling sound that is preferred by anglers is missing. Quality hooks can be used along with good split rings, but I don't know why the company hasn't given them. A most important and crucial point is that the front lip needs to be widened a little more. So let's say the width of the front lip is around 8 mm to 10 mm; it must be increased up to 15 to 20 mm in tapered sahpe.

Excellent spinning reel, very smooth and strong.

Thank you for your positive feedback about the Okuma Safina Pro Spinning Reel SNP-6000! We're glad to hear that it is meeting your expectations with its smoothness and strength. Happy fishing!

Very Good ... and pretty well designed.

There is No Where else to get these at the moment.
the Weight is Perfect - 28g for Bottom Fishing

I use them with an 80lb Test SPRO RT Flourocarbon Leader - and found them Flawless for a Knocker Rig. They are very Aerodynamic, and get my Bait easily around the 50 mtr mark, and If there isn't any much wing ... I can touch 65 mtrs easy.

Though some say, egg sinkers can cause abrasion to leader ... So far, I haven't yet faced this issue with my Knocker rig, using these Sinkers.

I'd definitely Suggest them if you are into Sliding Sinkers.

Egg Fishing Sinkers | Fishing Weights | 3.5 - 28 Gm |

We take pride in providing high-quality fishing weights and it's great to hear that they work well for bottom fishing. We appreciate your feedback and we will definitely take into consideration the potential abrasion issue with the leader. Thank you for the suggestion and happy sliding!

I Simply Love these, ... I Lost my First Pair, so Bought them again

I Mostly Use a BaitCasting Reel for Bait Fishing Groupers and Red Snappers (Tranx 401 PG to be precise), so yes ... I Need my THUMB to feel the Line when Casting and also later to Feel the BITE and Also to Apply THUMB Drag on the FreeSpool while fighting the fish ...

For Casting Lures I use a Spinning Setup(Saragosa 6000, to be precise), and Use the same gloves but I add a Index Finger Casting Glove for Heavy Plugs and Minnows(To save my finger.
Alternatively, I use my Okuma Motif Full-finger Fishing Gloves for the Spinning setup.

However, Given a Choice, I'd prefer these Very Rapala Gloves for Fishing all Day.

Rapala Tactical Casting Fishing Gloves | Model : RTCG

Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to review our Rapala Tactical Casting Fishing Gloves. We are so happy to hear that you love them and have found them useful for your fishing needs. We are sorry to hear that you lost your first pair, but we are glad we could help you replace them. It's great to know that these gloves are versatile and work well for both baitcasting and spinning setups. Thank you for choosing our gloves for your fishing adventures, we truly appreciate it. Happy fishing!

Perfect Fit, Very Secure Feeling, and Truly AntiSlip.

These are Really good Quality Gloves, Yes they come at a Price, but, They are very good.
Designed for Offshore, though can be used Inshore as well.

For Inshore Fishing, I personally Prefer Using the Rapala Tactical Casting Gloves --- Half-Finger Ones ...

The only Con of wearing Full Finger Gloves(This is a General Thing - Not Okuma as a Brand), is that it makes Tying Knots, Swapping Lures through a Snap a constant hassle, So I Simply remove the gloves to Do that sorta thing, and Quickly put them back on when Fishing.

All in all, I use them for their Purpose ... and they serve well. Great Quality.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback on the Okuma Motif Fishing Gloves. We are glad to hear that they are a perfect fit for you and provide a secure feeling with their anti-slip design. We understand your preference for using half-finger gloves for inshore fishing, and we appreciate your honesty about the potential hassle of tying knots and swapping lures with full finger gloves. We are happy to hear that overall, the gloves serve their purpose well for you and that you have found them to be of great quality. Thank you for choosing Okuma and happy fishing!
