This is our "The One That Got Away" cotton tee. Made from 100% Airlume Combed and Ringspun Cotton tee, it's extra soft and durable, with our The One That Got Away design on the front.
If you’ve ever spent time on the water, you know the feeling — that heart-pounding moment when your line goes tight, the reel starts screaming, and you just know it’s the fish of a lifetime.
This design was inspired by one of those unforgettable days. Our son hooked into something massive under the Figure Eight Bridge — line peeling, excitement sky-high — until it suddenly went slack. We think the line caught on a piling, but he still wonders what it was to this day.
That’s the beauty of The One That Got Away — it lives bigger every time you tell the story. Around here, that’s part of the legend.
How to Help!
Tell the story. Louder each time and practice dramatic pauses. Keep that “it was this big” hand gesture strong and confident. Blame the line, the lure, or the current — never yourself. And if anyone doubts you — point to the shirt. Most importantly, support your local bait shop and keep fishing. After all, the legend grows with every cast.
