12th Day of Christmas: Patagonia Wading Socks with Gravel Guard

By the 12th day of Christmas we bet your true love is dreaming of warmer days and summer trout streams. On hot days – especially if hiking’s involved – there’s nothing better than wet wading in cool water. Except when rocks get in your boots and your toes freeze. Patagonia Wading Socks with Gravel Guard have a soft, stretchy 3.5mm neoprene upper cushions and insulates, while the dense neoprene sole resists abrasion and compression. Gravel guards fold down and attach securely to laces with built-in hooks. Nothing says true love like a souped-up pair of socks!

The Patagonia Convertible Vest has a lightweight polyester mesh body on the breathes easily and doesn’t hold excess moisture. Internal zippered pockets organize leader material, tippets and spools. And at only $79.00 + GST, the price is just as appealing as the 11 pockets! Read more about the features of this versatile vest Here.

9th Day of Christmas:  MFC Digital Image Fly Boxes

On the 9th day of Christmas 9 Ladies were dancing due to the shear excitement of the new stock of MFC Digital Image Fly Boxes available in both Aluminum and Poly versions.  Fun and exciting designs by renowned artists on these fly boxes may cause you to break into dance as well, we just don't advise break dancing on the ice unless you're a seasoned veteran (not toooo seasoned though, that could be equally dangerous and we don't want the break dancing to become too literal).

4th Day of Christmas: Fly Fusion & The Drake Magazine

On the 4th day of Christmas, your true love might get you bird calls - or maybe calling birds? Calling birds might keep you up at night with all their quacking, so why not ask for a drake that doesn't make a sound? The latest issue of The Drake magazine is in stock now. If that idea doesn't catch flight, try another calling bird, that is, Birds: Fly Fusion magazine, created by the Bird family. Click "Here" for your copy.

 

 

3rd Day of Christmas: Airlock Indicators 

On the 3rd day of Christmas my true love tried to give me 3 French Air-Lock Indicator laying Hens.  The desire to have daily fresh farm raised, free range, grass and grain fed, never force fed nor live plucked, hypoallergenic and gluten free Air-lock indicator eggs was strong.  Now until science catches up to our true loves somewhat mad scientist wishes, we suggest 3 pack Air-Lock indicators that never slip or kink your leader.  We can't verify whether the ones in the shop are free range, but we're pretty confident they're gluten free ;-)

If you're looking to pick up some Air-Lock Indicators we have them in every size and color, or you can pick them up from the online store by "Clicking Here" Single Air-lock indicators are also available "Here" but just didn't fit the 3 theme as well ;-)

 

2nd Day of Christmas: Tacky Fly Boxes 

Don't get us wrong, Turtle Doves are great and all, if you're short on tying feathers, but how about 2 Tacky Fly Boxes instead?  Let's be honest the Turtle Doves would probably be just as Tacky....right?   These silicone insert fly boxes have no memory, like foam does, and will hold any fly as secure as can be.  Four Different models to choose from (Original, Big Bug, Dry Fly, & Day Tripper). To get your true love (or your fishing buddy you really don't feel that emotionally attached to) a Tacky Fly Box simply click here:
