Five Favorites for Your Fisherman

Countdown to Christmas and we’re officially under the seven-day mark. For some, the presents are wrapped, the fire is crackling, and the only thing left to do is gather the family and enjoy the season. For the rest of us, we are scrambling to complete our endless lists, but are unable to tear our eyes away from the calendar that must be lying to us.

In case the numbers are true and we really are a mere six days away from Christmas – here are some last minute gift ideas for the fisherman, or woman, in your life!

1) LifeStraw $19.95

The ultimate sigh of relief for you, and the ultimate in useful cool for them. This ultralight (2 oz) “straw” allows the user to turn up to 1,000 liters of contaminated water into safe drinking water. You can even safely drink directly from lakes and streams!

Giving back has never been cooler (or cleaner!)

2) Astral Rassler $119.95
