Nippers - Great Stocking Stuffer Idea




Nippers make a great stocking stuffer. They are tools that anglers often neglect to buy for themselves, but sure appreciate having on the water.  Here’s the current offering from Simms:  the Pro, Guide and Freestone.  All in stock and ready to ship.

Charlie's Gift Ideas

Stocking Stuffer 

The boater's guide is a must-have item for anyone that floats the Lower Deschutes. It contains a detailed map of all the named campsites, significant white water and mileage. Beyond that, it's just a great read. The Lower D has a long and interesting history, and the guide offers a great cursory view of its notable events. Perfect for reading with a headlamp during a beautiful night on the river! 

Mid-Priced

These boots are my standard footwear from about the middle of October until it quits raining in the spring. They're waterproof, comfortable and the bottom provides plenty of grip on wet and icey terrain. This is the ideal boot to slip on after fishing or for a snowy run to the grocery store. 

Top of the Line

RX reels absolutely set the bar for smoothness. They are beautifully machined and have a minutely adjustable drag. Available in trout sizes on up to saltwater big game, the RX is one of the finest reels out there today. Not to mention, the green color option pairs perfectly with a Winston rod!

John's Wish List and Gift Ideas


Items listed below are definitely on my Christmas “Wish-List'' and for good reason. I don’t have them yet! Each item is high quality to ensure years of service to your fly fishing addiction. 

STOCKING STUFFERS

Light yet durable to last for years.

Fishpond has one of the best retractors, I believe on the market. Made of durable 60/60 Aerospace aluminum with a 33” cord, and the cord is 130 pound test braided nylon this little jewel has some reach and will give you years of use. Also sports a “Carabiner” type clip to keep it secure.  

MILDLY PRICED

Everything at your ready without being in the way!

If you are like me, when I’m fishing, I need a system to hold everything I may need for the day, BUT, the last thing I need is for that system/pack to be in my way. The Fishpond Switchback Pro Wading System solves both issues. A few things I like about this system: #1. It’s beautifully designed to carry what you need and with quick access, yet #2. The ability to slide the pack back and forth keeps everything out of the way until you need it. #3 It holds my net lower on my back and out of the way, unlike some of my other older packs where the net is held higher near my shoulders and often would snag on branches and brush and being 6’5” this was an annoying issue that the Switchback Pro System solved. 

TOP OF THE LINE PRICED 

Winston Air2 Max rod is a thing of beauty!

Without a doubt, the new Winston Air2 Max rod, which replaced the Alpha+ and Air2 Salt rods. Condensing and creating an easy casting rod that will shine in saltwater and freshwater situations that you find yourself in. If you require a rod that has feel with reserved power, this is your rod. Winston has done a great job, hitting a home run, with the new Air2 Max”! I don’t own this rod, yet, but I will. I’ve not had the pleasure of fishing this rod yet, but was deeply impressed with it casting on our casting platform. So much so, that when the time comes for me to need this rod, I will buy it! Unless of course Santa brings me one! I could only wish...

Cerecoil Stripping guides and Recoil Snake guides. Compared to normal stripping and snake guides these help eliminate bent guides.

Charlie's Gift Picks - 2022

Team Member Charlie Piette

Big Ticket:

Winston Air II 596-4 - INCLUDES FREE FLY LINE



It’s time to get serious about winter trout fishing! On many days, indicator nymph fishing is the best game in town. The Air II 596 gives you a little extra reach for managing your line. It has enough power to combat the wind with a weighted rig, but a soft enough tip to double as a great dry fly rod when the hatch comes off. It’s a home run gift for the trout angler on your list.

Price Point:

We’re in the thick of the rainy and snowy season. Quality rain gear is a must. I recently picked up a G3 Guide Jacket and have gotten to put it through the paces in some all-day soakers. This jacket is a winner. It has a great hood that offers plenty of coverage without blocking your view. The cuffs put a tight seal around your wrists keeping your arms dry when rowing a boat. The stretchy fabric is ideal when you have to bulk up with extra layers.

Stocking Stuffer:

Fishpond Thunderhead Submersible Pouch
People are always struggling to find a safe place to keep their valuables when fishing. Look no further! The Thunderhead Pouch is fully waterproof/submersible and comes with convenient die cut loops for securing to a bag or raft frame. It’s perfect for storing your keys, wallet, phone and other small items you want to keep dry.

John's Gift Picks Christmas 2022

Team Member John Garrett

BIG TICKET: 

Winston Boron III TH MS (Microspey) 3106-4 
If you love fishing with a two handed rod, you are going to lose your mind with the Winston Boron III TH MS. If you’re looking for your first Trout Spey rod well then, you’re gonna thank me later. To date it is one of my favorite rods when fishing for trout. I can swing soft hackles, indicator fish with it if I felt like it, or throw just about any size streamer with the 3 weight 10’ 6” model. Has great feel to it, you can actually feel the rod load easily, power where you need it but without sacrificing the feel.

Shop Winston Boron III TH-MS Microspey Rods

PRICE POINT:

Simms GTS Spey Rod & Reel Vault
Gone are the days of having to duct tape your rod tubes together when traveling just to make it easier to do so. It’s been a long time coming, not because this is new to the market, but that we now have them in stock and it’s the easiest way to travel with Spey rods, reels and essentials. I think of all the money I have tied up in Spey rods and reels and how difficult it is to move them around when traveling abroad or just to my local river while at the same time protecting my investment. These vaults are crush resistant and super durable, the only thing that’s getting crushed here is hopefully a few Steelhead.

Shop Rod Cases  

STOCKING STUFFER:

Fishpond Tacky Pescador Fly Boxes 

With room for a couple hundred flies, if you were to run out, you might look for a new hobby. What I like about these boxes is that you don’t have to insert the hook point into the silicone pad itself, which eventually would ruin it but you simply insert the hook into the tight pre-slotted grooves. At first I didn’t have much confidence in the holding power of the slots, but I must say, they hold the flies extremely well. They are also fairly streamlined and not too big that I can't just throw them in my wader pouch and go.

Fathers Day Gift Guide - Simms SunGloves

Every Fly Angler should have good sungloves. Not only for the obvious sun protection but also to have a built in line strip pad for prevention of line burn.

Not only does this make a great "fit the budget" gift but has multi practical purposes. Even if dad don't like them for fishing they also make great outdoor gloves anytime you need to stop the rays from harmful burns.
