The Perfect Presentation for Pop

Celebrate the fly-fishing father figure in your life this Father's Day with our curated gift guide! From fly rods, reels, moisture-wicking shirts, polarized sunglasses, grippy wading shoes, and even fishy flip-flops, we've selected the finest gear to enhance his fishing experience. A thoughtful gift geared toward Dad’s passion can make his days on the water more enjoyable and help create memories that last a lifetime.

Poncho Outdoors Shirts

Poncho Outdoors is a relative newcomer to the outdoor apparel game, but they’ve quickly made a name for themselves with low-frills, high-quality shirts.

Korkers Fish Flip

They’re not just another flip flop, as they feature custom artwork from Derek DeYoung and Kling-On rubber for superior grip on wet surfaces.

Trxstle CRC Fly Rod Carrier 3.0

The CRC Fly Rod Carrier is perfect for the angler who fishes multiple rigs in the same day, or who simply needs more storage space for more fly rods.

Trout Mount

The idea is simple – leave your rods fully strung up in your car, which allows for more control over how they’re stored, and you get to keep an eye on them, unlike with a rooftop rod rack. 

Korkers Fish Moc

For the folks who still want a fish-themed shoe, but aren’t sold on the flip flop, Korkers has another option for you – the Fish Moc.

Sage Click

This simple, but elegantly crafted, reel features just enough of a drag to put the brakes on a bigger trout in high-country streams, but it’s light enough to balance small, light rods.

American Fly Fishing Magazine

A subscription makes a great Father’s Day gift for the travel junkie. They’ll be treated to regular issues featuring destinations across the United States that will take their breath away.

Nectar Islamadora Sunglasses

Their frames are built from renewable materials, and all their lenses are polarized. On top of that, Nectar prices their sunglasses at a reasonable point.

Sage R8 Core 

This is one of the best do-it-all 5-weights I’ve ever fished, but the R8 is equally as impressive in any of its other length and weight configurations.

Nautilus CCF-X2

This reel features 20+ pounds of drag, and has even lower startup inertia than the original CCF reel. The CCF-X2 also boasts incredible line pickup.

Scott Session

It’s light, but packs the power to fish big nymph rigs, and the subtlety for small dries. I’ve had the pleasure to put this rod through its paces for a few months now, and it’s quickly becoming a must-use rod in my quiver.

Winston Air 2 Max

 It’s the perfect rod for someone looking for the best performance in saltwater, or someone who plans on chasing big fish in freshwater. Muskie, pike, Great Lakes steelhead, and carp are no match for the Air 2 Max.

Costa Gold Mirror Polarized Lenses

Available in a wide variety of frames (including the legendary Grand Catalina, which have been re-released this year), these lenses are among the most impressive I’ve ever used.

Free Fly Elevate Lightweight Hoodie

This is an ultra-light version of their popular Elevate Hoodie, new for 2024. It boasts a UPF 25 rating along with Free Fly’s usual odor and moisture wicking properties.

Simms Pursuit Shoe

The Pursuit Shoe has a grippy sole that’s equally at home on salt flats and Western trout streams. Light enough for long treks into the backcountry, it also features a built-in gravel guard.
