Foul Weather Gear (STORMR): Earlier this year STORMR took home the ICAST Award in the technical apparel category for their new Fusion Jacket and Bib.

The STORMR Fusion Bib and Jacket each retail for $259 dollars. Anglers that are not traveling as much and will primarily fish in cooler conditions can still opt to go with the neoprene core technology based STORMR Strykr Bib for $299.95 and the Strykr jacket for $325.95.

Both STORMR collections are available now at Tackle Warehouse.  

Optics : Amphibia Hydra - $168.99 at TackleWarehouse

Optics (Amphibia Hydra) : Sunglasses are an important tool for all fishermen. Not only do they protect your eyes from the sun, but polarized lenses especially enhance vision at the surface and into the water by cutting down on glare. Most all fishermen at one time or another have dropped their shades into the water either from a boat, on the shore, or wading into the shallows or surf. What happens the majority of the time after your shades hit the water? They sink! Well, Amphibia Sports, LLC out of Texas has a simple solution. They've built relatively affordable sunglasses, with high end optics held by stylish frames that not only look good, but they float!

Optics : Amphibia Hydra - $168.99 at TackleWarehouse

We're excited to get these shades out on the water for some real world testing, but in the meantime, Amphibia's Hydra sunglasses have made our 2014 list of recommended buys for the holidays. They're available in three different color combinations and retail for $168.99 at TackleWarehouse.


Books : Bass Angler Magazine - $7.95 at TackleWarehouse

Books (Bass Angler Magazine) : Looking for a gift that can help make you or your friend a better angler? Pick up a copy of BAM (Bass Angler Magazine), a seasonal publication covering all things bass angling. In each issue there are tips, technique walkthroughs and even in-depth insight into the minds of professional anglers.
