Father’s Day Fly Fishing Gifts

Father’s Day is quickly approaching, and Active Junky has you covered for gift ideas for the father that loves to fly fish. The following products have been assembled and tested in the field by our fishing guide gear tester, and all selections have a place in the fly fishing arsenal of your favorite family man.  

Sage X Fishing Rod

Sage X $841.30 - $850.25
Sage’s new premier rod comes in a fast action base of four different models: freshwater, saltwater, spey and switch. Our tester spent his time guiding clients on the freshwater 9’ 5wt option utilizing nymph rigs. If large dry dropper or streamer fishing is your man’s preferred tactic, look to switch up to the 9’ 6wt. The KonnecticHD Technology in this fly fishing rod makes casting all styles of fishing rigs a pleasure. The Sage X delivers tight loops in the cast, producing the tight lines that will keep him smiling. 

Filson Fishing Pack

Filson Fishing Pack Starting at: $281.73
Every fly fisher needs a solid pack for fish netting excursions. The new Filson Fishing Pack is a selection that will style your dad with overdesigned functionality. Top quality in materials and design ensure this piece will last long enough to pass it down to the next generation of fishing enthusiasts in your family. The best kind of gift. 

Redington Prowler Boot

Redington Prowler Boot Starting at: $140.96
New for 2017, the Redington Prowler is the top wading boot option from the company. The sharp design will catch your eye, with plenty of performance and durability to match. Options lay in the opportunity for a felt sole or sticky walnut rubber (stud compatible). Prowler offers quick draining and drying with internal ankle padding for protection while wading. When choosing a boot size with the father in mind, make sure to bump up one size to accommodate neoprene socks.

Simms Guard Socks

Simms Guard Socks Starting at: $37.56
As the summer creeps forward, opportunities to leave the waders behind and wet wade increase. The Simms Guard Socks seal your pant legs in place and keep gravel from getting under your feet, a painful experience that halts all fishing. These 3.5mm neoprene socks keep feet warm for prolonged exposures to submerged cold-water fishing environments when full waders are too much. 

Costa Bloke

Costa Bloke $158.82 - $166.32
The Costa Blokes are serious polarized sunglasses for a motivated angler. The full-wrap frame fits larger heads and keeps light from seeping in the sides. With 580g polarization, the lenses are a scratch resistant glass that offer 100% UV blockage, 100% polarization and industry-leading clarity. The Costa Bloke comes in four frame and five lens varieties, providing options to match your man’s style.  

Thermacell MR450 Repeller

Thermacell MR450 Repeller Starting at: $30.80
The Thermacell MR450 is a portable mosquito repeller that can be attached to fishing packs while wading from the banks or hung around the campsite. The device keeps mosquitoes and other biting insects at bay, creating a 15’ x 15’ bug-free zone. The MR450 includes three repellent mats that last four hours a piece. Perfect for a dream fly fishing trips to the Wind River Range or other locations where bugs get hungry.

Yeti Tundra 45

Yeti Tundra 45 $329.00 - $334.25
The Yeti Tundra 45 is the king of coolers for the weekend warrior. The 45 fits up to 26 cans with the recommended 2:1 ice ratio. It’s a great size to toss in the back of a truck, drift boat or ATV to hold food & cold carbonated beverages to be enjoyed on the river. The ultra-durable rotomolded construction will have your guy enjoying this gift far down the line. 

Mountain Khakis Equatorial Pant

Mountain Khakis Men's Equatorial Pant Starting at: $60.85
The Mountain Khakis Equatorial Pant is a top choice for lightweight comfort at 2.7oz, quick drying and sun protection with UPF 50. These well-cut pants are a superb mixture of usable features, technology and style. From backyard BBQs to sitting on the front seat of a drift boat casting dry-dropper rigs, these pants are right at home. 

Snow Peak Titanium Curved Flask

Sometimes a celebratory swig is in order; other times one is needed after a long fishing-line-untangling party. The Snow Peak Curved Flask fits 6.7oz of liquid, perfect for either occasion. The flask is made of titanium, making it lightweight and ensuring there is no metallic flavoring affecting the liquid’s flavor. Cheer to our fathers!
