Josie Hatch

Pennsylvania, USA

I'm Josie Hatch — born in the hills of Northeast PA with mud on my boots and a rod in my hand. I grew up casting into quiet creeks and cold mountain lakes, learning that patience and a good drag setting go a long way. Around here, fishing isn't a pastime, it's part of the rhythm. I'm all about early mornings, perfectly packed tackle, and getting more women into waders. If it swims, I'll fish it — and if it bites, I've got a story to tell.

About Me

Favorite Spot:

A secluded trout stream near Ricketts Glen where the fish are spooky and the water's clear as glass.

Lucky Gear:

My dad's old net, patched three times and still holding strong.

First Fishing Memory:

Winning a kids' derby at Lake Wallenpaupack with a bluegill the size of a cookie and a grin to match.
