RANDY BLAUKAT OUTDOORS
PROFESSIONAL ANGLING AND EARTH CONSERVATION
I've been fishing professionally since 1986, and my goal and purpose in this sport has evolved during that time.
Early in my career, much of my focus was to become a better angler, and building a name in the sport. As I have matured as an angler, and had the good fortune to be able to make a living at the sport, my awareness & focus has also grown regarding preservation of the very sport that supports the same opportunities for generations to come.
In addition to pushing my abilities to higher levels, the bigger focus for me now, is creating sustainability and education regarding the environmental obsticles facing this sport.
The quality of life we enjoy on this planet is largely dependent upon clean air, water and stewardship of the earth.
I try to live in balance, that is why Susanne and I live in an off grid solar home, recycle, reuse and promote new ways of energy production through our way of life, in hopes to inspire others to be consious of this as well.
I keep in contact with my state senators and represenatives on environmental issues, as well as national organizations to keep informed on all related topics.
You can contact your local representatives or get involved with green organizations to be a part of earth preservation, even if you don't believe that there is a problem.
It will make a difference for generations to come, especially for companionship of nature and how it brings all living things together!
