Happy Birthday @Vollmer
Ohhh we’re roasting a North Dakota fishing legend on his birthday? Say less.

So this is about @Vollmer from Nodak Angler — the man, the myth, the guy who probably owns more jigs than matching socks.
First of all…
Happy Birthday to the only guy who can write a 2,000-word fishing report and still not reveal his actual spot. We see you. “Somewhere on a North Dakota body of water.” Wow. Groundbreaking intel, Sherlock.
Let’s talk about that Nodak Angler energy:
And the gear breakdowns…
We don’t need a doctoral thesis on why you switched from chartreuse to “slightly more emotionally available chartreuse.” The fish are not reading your blog. Although honestly, at this point, they might be — just to avoid you.
Also — can we discuss the classic Nodak Angler pose?
That fish has a mortgage and three kids.
And let’s not ignore the annual birthday reflection post:
Brother, you post about wind more than the National Weather Service.
But honestly — here’s the truth:
The man grinds.
He writes.
He fishes.
He documents North Dakota waters like it’s his full-time job.
And he’s probably outfished 90% of the people reading this.
So happy birthday, @Vollmer.
May your livewell stay full, your batteries stay charged, and may you one day reveal an actual fishing spot instead of “mid-lake structure.”
Now go celebrate the only way you know how:
By calling it “a quick evening bite” and staying out for 6 hours.

Let’s talk about that Nodak Angler energy:
- Owns 47 rods.
- Uses 3.
- Blames the fish for “not committing.”
- Still says, “They were really active today.”
And the gear breakdowns…

Also — can we discuss the classic Nodak Angler pose?
- Fish held aggressively toward the camera
- Arms fully extended
- Sunglasses reflecting pure dad confidence
- Caption: “Decent eater.”

Tight lines??“Grateful for another year, family, friends, and tight lines.”
