Our Story
The seeds of Fishing Sensei were sown when our founder Reuben, a seasoned angler with over two decades under his belt, took his two young sons on their first fishing expeditions. Those priceless moments of joy and bonding made him ponder a significant question: What about those who don’t have someone to guide them on their fishing journey?
In March last year, the realization hit that not everyone has the luxury of a mentor when they pick up their first fishing rod. It was this understanding that prompted the birth of Fishing Sensei—a platform conceived to be the worldwide mentor for every angler, from the newbie to the seasoned pro.
From our modest origins, we now reach over a thousand daily visitors as a trusted source for fishing advice.
Our Team
The Fishing Sensei team comprises of seasoned anglers, each with years of fishing experience and a commitment to simple, understandable, and yet helpful content.
Every member of the team works hand-in-hand with our founder to guide anglers to become masters on the water.

We are also dedicated to the conservation and improvement of fish populations. Despite our site being about catching more fish, we aren’t contributing to reducing fish populations. Whether or not an angler visits our site, he or she would have gone fishing anyway, but by educating readers on fishing regulations and methods to conserve fish populations such as catch and release, we can help bring balance to ocean ecosystems and ensure the fishing industry remains healthy.
