*Innovative Fishing Product*

Fishermen have wished they could cast just a bit further and spot their
quarry just a bit easier for centuries.  In response to this, some anglers
have begun lugging household step ladders into the ocean, lakes, and even
streams to make this possible.  While this helps the problem, it is by no
means a convenient or practical solution.

I am working on creating a collapsible step ladder that (1) can be packed
in and out of fishing locations in just a backpack, and (2) can be easily
adjusted to provide a stable, sturdy platform in waves, currents, and on
uneven bottoms of sand and rock.

I'm a Tuck 2010 graduate, currently living in Boulder, CO working as a
marketing strategy consultant.  I have been fly fishing since the age of
14, and have always been enthralled with fish and fishing.

If you are interested in being part of this endeavor to bring fishermen to
new heights (literally!) in their craft, please send me an e-mail at
