My grandpa, Willis Myron Horton, was one of the most innovative and kindest men I've ever known. Born in 1915 in Wakarusa, Kansas, he spent his life in northeast Kansas and built a legacy around two simple things: providing for his family and loving the outdoors.
He loved fishing with a quiet passion. Every time he went out, he carefully logged his catches — where he fished, the weather, water temperature, water clarity, what bait or lure worked, and his own thoughts on the day. Those handwritten logbooks are still treasures we keep in the family and pass down through the generations.
We grew up eating vegetables from his hand-tended garden, listening to his wonderful stories of life, and eating all the fresh fish we could ever want.
On August 17, 2011, at the age of 96, Grandpa passed away in Manhattan, Kansas. It felt like our family lost a cornerstone. But his gentle nature, his stories, and his love for fishing stayed with us.
That's why we created Gramps Fishing Report. We wanted to keep his tradition alive — giving fellow anglers (especially older ones like us) an honest "heads-up" on local conditions without all the noise and complexity of today's apps.
In this buzzing world of 2026, we believe fishing should still feel simple. That's why our reports are straightforward text messages: clear bite ratings, realistic water temps, area weather (including barometric pressure), and conservative advice you can actually trust.
We're honest when the bite is slow — because that's what Grandpa would have done. No hype. No false hope. Just real, helpful information so you can decide: Should I go or stay home?
