Fishing Titans Join Forces in Hydration Partnership
In a move prioritizing angler safety, clean hydration leader BioSteel has joined forces with BlacktipH, the world's largest fishing channel and social media platform. This collaboration, announced on February 4, 2025, aims to address a critical yet often overlooked aspect of fishing safety: proper hydration.

Tackling Dehydration Risks in Extreme Fishing
Fishing in extreme conditions poses significant health risks, with dehydration being a primary concern. BlacktipH, known for its adventures in some of the hottest climates on the planet, recognizes the dangers firsthand. Josh Jorgensen, founder of BlacktipH, emphasizes the importance of hydration:"Spending hours on the ocean in blazing sun makes hydration critical. It's not just about comfort—it's about safety and maintaining focus when battling massive fish."
Clean Hydration for Peak Performance and Safety
BioSteel's clean, healthy hydration products will now play a crucial role in BlacktipH's safety protocols. Dan Crosby, CEO of BioSteel, explains:"Fishing in extreme conditions requires more than just skill; it demands proper hydration to maintain focus, endurance, and overall well-being. Our partnership with BlacktipH allows us to address this crucial safety aspect directly."
Beyond Hydration: A Holistic Approach to Angler Health
The partnership goes beyond merely providing drinks. It aims to educate millions of fishing enthusiasts about the importance of hydration and overall health while on the water. This is particularly meaningful for Josh Jorgensen, who after battling cancer, became acutely aware of the importance of clean nutrition and proper hydration in maintaining health and safety during strenuous activities.
Setting a New Standard for Fishing Safety
By combining BlacktipH's massive reach with BioSteel's expertise in sports hydration, this partnership sets a new benchmark for safety in the fishing community. It serves as a reminder that proper hydration is not just about performance, but a critical component of staying safe while pursuing outdoor passions. As extreme fishing continues to gain popularity, this collaboration between BioSteel and BlacktipH stands as a proactive step towards ensuring that anglers worldwide are equipped with the knowledge and tools to stay safe and healthy on the water.
