In honor of Cooper Anderson’s 33rd birthday, I thought I would make a gift list. If you are not an avid angler, it can be tricky to find the perfect gift! Here is a quick list of 5 gifts that will dazzle any angler, without breaking the bank.
1.) Deyoung tumbler. These mugs run $20 each and are a great way to add some fishing flair to any anglers home. Whether they fish salt or fresh water, there are options for both. Give two now and two next Christmas. They are fun to collect!
2.)Fly Fishing hats. These are an easy gift, and they will be loved. I can’t tell you how fast a lucky hat gets to be dirty and worn with sweat rings and the like. A new hat feels good! Your favorite angler will thank you for helping them make fly fishing look sooooo good. Simms has nailed it in the accessories department, I recommend checking them out first. They have great women’s options too! Hats are in the $20-$40 range depending on style.
3.)Fancy nippers. I use nippers every time I hit the water. Abel makes a great nipper that runs $60 for a solid color which are available in a rainbow of colors. The fancy nipper is definitely pricier than many other versions, but they don’t slip around with wet fingers and the larger size make them easier to grab and use.
4.) Trout stationary. I created this stationary because I could not find any that was fishy enough! The 5 pack runs $20 and the blank cards will give your fishy friends a way to stay in touch as they travel the globe in search of fins and gills.
5.) Trout of the World by James Prosek. This is a perfect coffee table/ reference book. There are more fish in here than I could imagine, and it is quite interesting to see the differences in trout around the world. It’s imformative, it’s art, it’s a super cool way to spend an a few hours, and it’s something your favorite angler will find themself looking at over and over again. This book is $25.
