Last Black Friday, I did something I'd never done before in the 14-year history of My Fishing Cape Cod—I offered a Lifetime Membership option.
I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect. Would anyone actually take the leap? Would people see the value in committing to this community for the long haul?
The answer blew me away.
Twenty-four incredible members stepped up and said "yes" to becoming Lifetime Members. Twenty-four people who believed in this community enough to make it their fishing home forever.
Then this year, another 13 members upgraded to the Lifetime option.
Today, I want to publicly thank each and every one of these members. You took a chance on me and on MFCC, and I want you to know how much that means. You're not just members—you're the foundation of something really special we're building here.
Why This Matters
When I created the Lifetime Membership option, it wasn't just about offering a deal. It was about finding the people who truly get what we're doing here at My Fishing Cape Cod. The folks who understand that this isn't just a website—it's a community of passionate anglers who support each other, share knowledge, and make memories together on the water.
These 37 Lifetime Members saw the vision. They know that the best fishing trips, the most helpful forum advice, and the friendships made are worth investing in for the long term. And honestly? Their faith in MFCC has inspired me more than they'll ever know.
Looking ahead, I'll be working harder than ever to make sure the MFCC experience lives up to what these Lifetime Members believed in. Every podcast, blog or video we produce, every fishing trip we organize, every event we plan—I'm thinking about how to make this community even better for all of you, but especially for the people who went all-in.
Thank You
To our 37 Lifetime Members: thank you. Thank you for believing in this vision. Thank you for your enthusiasm. Thank you for being active participants in making MFCC the best fishing community on Cape Cod.
You've inspired me to work harder, think bigger, and never stop improving what we offer here. I can't wait to see you at the next 36hr Grind, go fishing with you on a MFCC group trip, or swap stories when we cross paths around the Cape.
And to everyone else reading this: if you've been thinking about making MFCC your fishing home forever, stay tuned. Black Friday 2026 will be here before we know it! LOL. I'd be honored to welcome you next year into this incredible lifetime group.
Tight lines! 🎣
Thank you, Ryan! I am very glad to be part of this wonderful community of anglers for the long term, and can’t wait to see how MFCC grows in the years to come.
Awesome having you onboard Gretchen, and I’m looking forward to welcoming some new Lifetime Members into the group this Black Friday. Perhaps I’ll organize a meetup at some point for all the Lifers. That would be fun! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving.
