Trident Fly Fishing is a full-service fly shop. We spend a lot of time testing gear and writing reviews to give you all of the tools to make your next trip a success.  We are not a blog or a review site. 100% of our funding comes from your gear purchases, so if this blog post helps you on your next fly fishing adventure, please support us by buying your gear from us.

Fall is upon us which means the holiday season is just around the corner. We know you’re busy chasing pumpkin Browns, chrome Steelhead, Bull Redfish, and fall Stripers, so holiday shopping is probably the last thing you want to do right now.

From pliers and luggage to Simms apparel and Trident swag, this list takes the guesswork out of shopping for a fly angler, even if that angler is yourself. Enjoy your holiday shopping made easy, so you can get back out on the water quicker!

When in doubt, a hoody is a great gift option for those who fish in colder climates. This Simms Challenger Hoody features a cozy fleece interior and a kangaroo pocket. It comes in a clean Slate color that goes well with just about any outfit, or a camo option which is nice for anglers who want maximum stealth and even hunters. For the fishy guy or gal in your life, this Simms Hoody is a solid holiday gift to show them you support their fishing addiction.

Regal Medallion Fly Tying Vise

Regal-Medallion-Fly-Tying-Vise

A fly tying vise is an investment that most tyers only have to make twice in their lifetime. Their first vise is generally a beginner's kit to get started, but these lack a lot of features that tyers need as they progress their skills. The second, and usually final vise is something that will last generations, and the Regal Medallion is one of the finest. Countless legendary fly tiers have produced effective flies for decades on the Regal Medallion thanks to its solid construction, its unique rotary function, and its powerful jaws. What’s more, you can now customize your Regal vise for your specific tying style and preferences. This holiday season, give the gift of fly tying joy with this high-quality vise from Regal.

Orvis Wide Mouth Guide Net

Orvis-Wide-Mouth-Guide-Net

On any fishing trip, there are a few things that you just can’t be without: rods, reels, packs, and a NET! A landing net is an important piece of equipment that allows you to land fish quickly and safely, and keep them wet while you remove the fly and release them. The Orvis Wide Mouth Guide Net features a long handle for extended reach, and a large basket to make netting fish easier, especially for larger Trout & Bass. If the special angler in your life is fishing without a net, or has a janky small hand net, help them up their game and get them this fantastic landing net from Orvis!

Simms Tailwind Duffel Bag

Simms-Tailwind-Duffel-Bag

We’re passionate about angling travel, so we are especially pumped about this new Simms Tailwind Duffel. Available in two sizes, the tailwind is designed for the globetrotting angler to be an all-in-one packing solution for everything from rainy boat transfers in the panga to getting tossed in the back of a pickup truck. This duffel can be carried by hand or converted into a backpack, and it features a brilliant two-compartment system to separate clean clothing or electronics from dirty or wet fishing gear. If your significant other loves to travel the world to chase fish, there’s no doubt that they will appreciate this rugged piece of fishing luggage designed by the good folks at Simms in Bozeman, Montana.
