A Fishing Too Close Shirt with an Angler Back Print

Bold distressed lettering frames a standing angler, a bent fishing rod, and a leaping fish connected by a looping line. The black-and-white treatment keeps the message readable from a distance. The artwork represents general recreational fishing and does not identify a fish species, fishing method, lake, river, or state.
