I'm Rick Cruz, a Texas outdoorsman, entrepreneur, and fishing creator. I'm the founder of Lunker Database and owner of DFW Fishing Forum. I share the big catches, the tough days, and the funny moments that make fishing worth coming back to. Behind the scenes, I'm building businesses and communities that bring anglers, creators, and outdoor brands together. Follow along for life on the water and the work that goes into building something beyond it.
