About Us
Fishing is far too complicated a sport to get into. If you don’t have the luxury of an angling-obsessed dad, sibling or friend then it can feel a bit like trying to breathe underwater.
Let me run you through a few questions to see if they sound familiar;
- What type of rod do I need?
- There are multiple types of reel?
- Why do some lures sink?
- Is fishing better when it rains?
- What time should I fish for pike?
I mean, this could go on forever…
If this sounds a bit like you, then we’re here to help. Think of us as your online older brother, but in a much less creepy sense. We provide concise, detailed information for beginners and intermediates about how and where to fish, review products, and tackle and break down exactly what you need to bring on each fishing trip.
Arguably the most valuable thing we do is compare products and scour all of our partner stores to find the product at its best available price. The more partners we get, the better our service becomes.
Check it out on our shop page.
Ultimately we felt like fishing is in need of an overhaul. A place you can come to, to find the best products on the market, with clear concise information about what you do and don’t need to bring to help you become as obsessed with fishing as we are.
Here we are
I’m Harry. I started Men Who Stare At Floats in 2022 after realising it was the greatest name for a brand anyone had ever come up with. Originally I had planned for it to be a tv show, but that’s another story.
I work with a friend (Hugo) and my two older half-brothers at creating the content and testing the products. (It’s simply too much for one man to handle).
What we do
So that’s us. If you’d like to get in touch then please use the form on our contact us page.
