Great Gear for Every Fisherman

In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, why don’t you do something you truly love this month, like fishing? It could be with a loved one or just a solo trip for a little R&R, but you deserve it and there’s no better time than the present!

If you’re looking for some new gear or just a few fishing essentials, Bass Pro Shops is the place to shop. As the World’s Foremost Outfitter of outdoor gear, Bass Pro Shops has an awesome reputation for offering a wide selection of high-quality outdoor apparel and supplies. They also have helpful buying guides, exceptional customer service, and collections that are unmatched.

For example, the PENN® Fierce® III Spinning Combo is designed to give you the upper hand in any situation. With a 4+1 system that boasts durable stainless steel ball bearings and Instant Anti-Reverse, backed by the head-turning power of Penn’s premium HT-100™ carbon fiber drag, PENN has matched this reel to a quality rod built for maximum strength, with a powerful graphite composite blank that provides just the right combination of horsepower and flexibility. A perfectly matched setup, this combo offers dependable power for your saltwater exploits, at an affordable price.

If you’re looking to fish for trout and other panfish, the Bass Pro Shops® Micro Lite™ Elite Spinning Combo is ideal. Light and sensitive, this combo features a Micro Lite Elite Spinning Reel that boasts a smooth and precise, 7-bearing system that includes Powerlock™ instant anti-reverse, and the Micro Lite Elite Spinning Rod features RT2 Graphite composite blank construction that provides reliable performance to anglers of all skill levels.

Now, while the rod and reel are essential, you can’t forget the tools needed to make your day on the water easy. One must-have tool for any weekend or pro angler is the Boomerang Tool’s “The Snip” – a 3.5″ retractable, heavy-duty line cutter that cleanly cuts up to 50-lb. test fishing line, quickly and easily. And don’t forget the Bubba® 110V Electric Fillet Knife which covers all the bases for filleting your catch quickly and easily, with no time limit and no power interruptions.

When everything is said and done, storage and transport is nothing to forget either. Made of polyurethane-coated, 900-denier reinforced nylon for water-resistant, rip-free performance, the Bass Pro Shops Stalker Backpack is the best way to store and carry what you need. Built to last, this pack comes complete with an internal divider, multiple internal and external organization pockets, side-loading compartments for utility boxes, zip hip-belt pockets, an integrated rod-holder system, and a fleece-lined sunglasses pocket at the top.

So, again, whether you have a special valentine or you’re your own valentine, head over to Bass Pro Shops today and plan the fishing trip of your dreams!
