TackleTour Holiday Gift Guide
2010 Part 2 - Lures and Accessories for both the Naughty and Nice
(continued)
 Watercraft Accessory (Durasafe Codeable locks):
Probably the most innovative automobile/watercraft accessory we have seen in
years are the Durasafe Codeable Locks. Available as a padlock or receiver lock
these locks will code to your primary automobile key so you don't need to carry
extra keys. With a weather resistant shutter and solid zinc core and protective
jacket these locks are able to withstand shock and the elements.

Code to your own car key and lock
it down Durasafe style!
A unique 6
plate tumbler sidebar makes it nearly impossible to pick. These locks are great
for securing everything from trailers and spares to bikes and tool sheds. The
padlocks retail for $27.99 while the receiver locks retail for $36.99. Strong,
reliable and extremely convenient with a codeable design these locks are a great
gift for outdoor enthusiasts of all kinds. These quality locks are available now
at
Tackle Warehouse.

Costa Del Mar makes a complete
range of premium optics with various lens options
Optics (Costa Del Mar): Costa sunglasses
are among the highest end sunglasses that anglers can buy. Featuring a range of
lens options the 580 glass options give anglers excellent clarity and polarized
performance. One our favorite styles is the rugged Harpoon Voyager version which
features spring hinges for extra comfort and extremely durable nylon frames that
can be fitted with prescription lenses. A normal pair will set you back $148
dollars but add 580 glass lenses versus the standard CR39 lenses and your
looking at a $248 retail price. Is it worth it? Absolutely. Not only do they
deliver excellent performance on the water but they look great as an everyday
pair of sunglasses and come backed with a lifetime warranty. The complete range
of Costa Del Mar sunglasses are available now at
Hi's Tackle Box.

Wiley X sunglasses are worn by
some of the biggest name pros on tour including Skeet Reese, Boyd Duckett and
Jared Lintner
Optics (Wiley
X Scissor Sunglasses): For those anglers looking for a more affordable
option Wiley X has a number of very stylish yet highly functional polarized sunglasses
specifically designed for anglers. These are the sunglasses that are so often
seen sported by Pro Angler Skeet Reese. In fact he has his own style called the
Skeet Reese Xcess which features his trademark blue lenses for $145.99 or smoke
lenses for only $103.99. For those anglers looking for a more traditional frame
there is the X Scissor style which is also available in blue mirror lenses and
also utilizes the company's proprietary lens technology which adds 99.9%
polarization to 100% UV protection for excellent clarity and contrast in bright
conditions. One of the best things about Wiley X sunglasses is they come
complete with a leash cord and zippered case. A wide assortment of Wiley X
sunglasses are available
at
Tackle Warehouse.

The Gill Inshore Lite is a great
foul weather jacket for warm weather conditions (Zander didn't protest too much
when the ladies wanted the jacket)
Foul Weather Gear (Gill
Inshore Lite IN10 Jacket): Gill is well known among the sailing community
and has made a big push into the bass fishing world with their premium apparel
in the last few seasons. How serious are they? For starters they signed BASS
Elite Series Angler Dean Rojas and also provide the foul weather gear for Team
Yamaha. Gill apparel is known for quality and what makes the IN10 jacket so good
is that it provides waterproof protection while still allowing anglers to be
very mobile. This lightweight jacket is designed for warmer days and you can
wear layers underneath in case temperatures do drop. Adjustable velcro cuffs
help make sure no wind or water get into the jacket when casting and landing
fish and the laminate fabric is designed to hold up over the long term. This
jacket has been in our review queue for a year now and continues to hold up
well, so well in fact that it is making the trip down to the Amazon with us
shortly. The Gill Inshore Lite jacket is available now for $144.95 at
Tackle Warehouse.

Buff's deliver great sun
protection while fishing and can be worn many different ways
Apparel Accessory (Buff Sun
Protection): When out on the water all day long, your neck is one of the
most vulnerable parts of your body. It is constantly exposed to the sun. Even if
you wear a UV fabric button down shirt with a collar, your neck is never really
fully shielded unless you have a Buff. Multifunctional and available in UV
protective fabric, Buffs just make sense, and after seeing how Casey and MJ
choose to wear them, we couldn’t agree more. Buffs are available in a wide range
of fish patterns for only $22.99 each at
Monster Fishing Tackle.

Looking for UV protection in a
comfortable and stylish shirt? You need look no further than Under Armour Flats
Guide II shirts
Apparel (Under Armour
Flats Guide II Shirts): UV protection from your clothing is almost common
place in today’s outdoor apparel choices - and for good reason. You just cannot
be too careful anymore in seeking protection from the sun’s harmful rays. Under
Armour’s Flats Guide II Shirt won Editor’s Choice honors at the beginning of
this year and continues to perform well for us out on the water – even if we’re
still waiting for the TackleTour logo’d versions.
Tackle Warehouse has an assortment of these excellent fishing
shirts available now.
Conclusion: The 2010
Holiday gift Guide is in the books and Casey and MJ had a great time sharing our
HGG picks with you. Here's to a great winter fishing season and thanks to you,
all our readers, for a great 10 year anniversary. From all of us here at
TackleTour have a very Happy Holidays!
