Why We Love Them & Where to Find Them

Note: we are not affiliated with any of retailers or manufacturers below - we just love the products.

1. Dyna-King Ultimate Indexer Vise - You can find this at several online retailers, including Trident Fly Fishing. It has 8 adjustment positions at every 45 degrees in a full 350 degree rotation that allows for a variety of tying angles combined with easy indexing adjustments.
2. Sage Igniter Fly Rod - If you're reading this in December, order now because it's on sale at Trident Fly Fishing! The Sage Igniter Fly Rod is highly specialized for technical situations. It's made for rough weather conditions - strong headwinds, heavy flies and heavy fly lines.
3. Hardy Bros Lightweight Fly Reel - This lightweight fly reel is made in England and has stood the test of time for 80 years! Simple, classic and functional. Easily changed from left to right hand wind.
4. Hardy Bros 1912 Perfect Fly Reel - This fly reel combines some of the best features from past reels and is named for the 1912 Perfect check mechanism. It has a classic pre-1920s narrow spool design and a red agate line guard.
5. Fishpond Thunderhead Grande Submersible Duffel - Eco Cutthroat - This duffel has a massive 100L capacity, stowable backpack straps and exterior attachment points. We vote for the Eco Cutthroat Orange color, but you can also choose Riverbed Camo. This durable bag has been tested in some of the most demanding environments around the globe. If it's good enough for critical service professionals, it's good enough for us! Also, It's made from 100% recycled single-use plastic water bottles with no petrochemicals.
6. Men's ProDry Fishing Jacket from Simms Fishing - It's durable, waterproof and breathable with GORE-TEX fabric, keeping you dry and comfortable in tough conditions on the water. It was designed by serious anglers for serious anglers.
7. Men's Wading Jacket G4 Pro from Simms Fishing Products - This is another quality jacket from Simms Fishing, a 45-year old company that makes high quality fishing gear. We love the superior waterproofing with waterproof zippers and watertight cuffs, plus it's breathable. This one is a little more expensive than the other one, but as they say, it's the highest-tech wading jacket out there.
8. The Great Divider Boat Bag 26L by Patagonia - The key detail about this bag is that it's structured. How many times do you dig around in bags trying to find what's hiding in the corners? It's also water-resistant, making it an excellent choice on the water.
9. Dry Creek Z Hip Pack by Simms Fishing - This may be more expensive than a Lululemon fanny pack, but one of the best options when you're fly fishing. It's so waterproof it's actually submersible, and very rugged. It has nice interior mesh pockets and a cushioned waist belt keeps it comfortable.
10. Scott 50th Anniversary F-Series 3WT 7' - Why will you love these? We will share Scott's own words: "We picked one rod from each decade that exemplifies Scott innovation and, in some way, changed the way we fish. Each was chosen from an award-winning series of Scott rods that are even more celebrated by the anglers who fish them. For those anglers, these are 'never part with' rods."
