I think it is a good idea, caps T shirts, stickers & jackets, I am not sure what it costs to run this sight, would help, & whats left over going to Kids funds ect:. cheers Donnyboat.

This'd be cool.
We could fund the site and Alan's kid fishing work and show support.

I'm going to weigh in with a simple AT wrench with the AlanTani.com engraving.  Simple yet is says what the site is all about.  However, Alan has not weighed in so my feeling is he is not happy with the idea.  Dominick

I'd love a T-shirt... even better, a nice embroidered jacket for Long Range trips.

Once Alan weighs in and approves/disapproves I could try a few things (I do Signage for a living).  I'm a Project Engineer not Graphic Designer, but I've done quite a few logos for breweries, local restaurants and friends business's.

We've talked about it several times and loved the unity idea of our Ohana, but then talked about resources and storage of the shirts/caps/jackets.  Resources...neither of us has the resources to cover this at the moment.  We would likely require a deposit to cover some or all of the costs, but both Alan and I don't like to take money without being able to deliver the goods immediately.  Then there's the logo...I do like the Penn Wrench with AlanTani.com on the sleeve, but we still need a logo that represents the reel problems we all have.

Something that just came to mind....

One quick thought...I'm really tired of cheap crappy T-shirts, hoodies and hats.  Whatever does get done, we need to do it on quality product...Like Carhartt T-Shirts (Or similar) and Flex-Fit Hats (Or Similar)...the cheap $5 shirt and $10 hat to me is garbage and not worth buying.  Just my opinion though...

The agency I work for just purchased polo shirts made by Corner Stone had them embroidered with our seal on one side and name on the other, by a local small business (well just him and his wife out of their house)  and our cost was $35per shirt...the Corner Stone polo is similiar to the 5/11 brand but at a reasonable price....bill

I was adopted into a small local fishing club several years ago.
It's called the "fishing idiots". Membership is by nomination from current members.  one must have done "something" on the water that inspires the current membership to declare your status as a fishing idiot or just simply an idiot.  I don't want to bore you with the details of what I may have done to deserve this recognition, but some examples might be, running out out of gas and continuing to fish while waiting for assistance, perhaps you might have tried to install a spare battery while under way and accidentally cross wired the battery causing an explosion and fire on an aluminum boat!  Or one might have run out of gas on the water, more than once!  Or one might use the engine propeller as a downrigger!  One may have hooked a fish and then another fish and while fighting one fish the other rod and reel that are hooked up gets yanked overboard and a brand spanking new, first time on the water g looms rod and penn torque goes overboard never to be heard from again, but you don't care because you just landed the biggest salmon of your life!  Anyway these are just ahem! Examples of things that one might or might not have done which would undoubtedly secure your membership as an FN Idiot! 
Even we got t shirts!

if someone were  to volunteer or be nominated to spearhead the project and garner a bit of support from the moderators and chief we could review concepts etcetera here onsite and ultimately collect funds in advance with a fixed donation to the youth fishing program and an agreed flat rate shipping fee included in the t shirt / hat / sticker, price.
Then one person would have to pay for, receive and ship the individual orders to members.  Not impossible just a minor pain in the you know what.
And remember you get what you pay for, if you want quality it's going to cost more.

Messing around for a couple minutes, this is just getting ideas down on 'paper';  more of digital sketching in my opinion.  I'll do more the next few nights...

Love it Dan. Keep it coming.
