Our Story
Small Water, Big Memories
There’s a saying that goes, “Men from different countries around the world share one common hobby—fishing.” I particularly enjoy fishing in beautiful mountain creeks. The days spent fishing in those crystal-clear waters, surrounded by birdsong and the scent of flowers, are some of the most unforgettable moments of my life. It’s peaceful yet full of life. One day, while fishing alone by the creek, I happened to meet her—a girl who also had a love for nature. We shared the same passion. As we talked by the water, exchanging our thoughts on life and sharing fishing stories, our friendship began to blossom. The connection we felt in the fresh air made this encounter all the more special. Every time I think back to that moment, I can still feel the tranquility of the mountains and how our souls were in tune. Today, we still often fish together by the stream, but now that girl is my wife. Friends, let’s go to the creeks. Although the water is small, it can leave you with beautiful memories.
You Can Buy Expensive, But Not Too Expensive
My wife and I enjoy trying various fishing techniques, including lure fishing, fly fishing, tenkara, and micro fishing. Each style offers its own unique enjoyment. As a result, we’ve accumulated a lot of experience and often find ourselves comparing different brands and vendors when buying new gear. We share the same shopping philosophy—value for money. We’ve joked before, “You can buy expensive, but not too expensive.” Eventually, this sparked an idea: Why not turn our shared passion into a small business? A place where fellow anglers can find high-quality, reasonably priced fishing gear for creek fishing. And so, “Creek Paean” was born.
As Long as It Makes You Happy
We apply our understanding of creek fishing and our consumer mindset to the products we select and develop. We conduct thorough market research, collaborate with other fishing enthusiasts, and communicate our ideas with gear suppliers and manufacturers. Our goal is to offer products that truly provide value for money for creek fishing lovers. The saying, “You get what you pay for,” is true in some contexts. However, market competition creates value differences in similar price ranges, though these differences are typically not huge. That said, when we fish in the small stream, it’s about relaxing and connecting with nature. Whether you use high-end or basic gear, what matters most is getting the joy you seek from the experience. So, at the end of the day, just enjoy it.
Honor Our Creeks
As you may have noticed, our brand name is “Creek Paean”, which means we should praise and respect the streams we share. They selflessly provide us with joy and nourishment. We urge all anglers to practice catch-and-release whenever possible and avoid leaving trash behind. When you catch them, please try to protect your fish from greater harm. Using a fish-friendly landing net is a wise choice. If you need to take home any fish, please don’t waste them—only take what you truly need.
