undefined review of Simms Womens G3 Guide Stockingfoot Wader - 2022 image 1 out of 1

Julie G.

Not the greatest picture for show but loved the waiters from Simms. The only thing is my feet are size 7 and I had to get an XL for the measurements. The booties on the xl are 9-10. Because I bought the G3 I may send back to Simms to exchange the booties out but my boots are big and the extra bootie helped to fill the space. Would recommend for quality and help from customer service.

Gregory J.

We bought this in Navy XXL for our son-in-law for his birthday and he LOVES it? Great quality, as always, and we were thrilled to get the sale price. Super fast delivery! The only thing I could suggest is to offer the option of a gift box & tissue for several dollars, and/or giftwrapping option.

undefined review of Hardy MTX-S Fly Reel image 1 out of 1

Ross J.

I purchased this reel as a present to myself. It replaced my previous delay driver--a 5/6 Sage Spectrum--on my H3 Blackout 5 wt. I love the Spectrum, and it's served me well. But the MTX-S is light years ahead. I've had a chance to try out the reel a few times this winter already and really put it through its paces in icy conditions (where that sealed drag comes in handy big time) on some fairly large trout. The drag is hyper smooth, but strong enough to keep the heat off a 20" fish making a ru...

Reel looks great, the backing is expertly packed and rigged with a Bimini twist, very pleased with the service from Fin & Fire. I have now made a couple of purchases and the inventory is always first rate and shipping super fast.

Charles H.

First off, customer service from Fin and Fire was top notch. I actually had these boots on order from a bigger hunting retailer (who I will not name) and they were taking their sweet time to process and ship my order. Call Fin and Fire up and they told me it would ship immediately if I ordered before 1pm. Called and canceled my other order lickidy-split. Ordered from Fin and Fire and received them next day. Now, the boots... Best lightweight boot I have ever had. Extremely well made, high quali...

Wade D.

I ordered these while Simms was out of stock. Placed an order for a different product directly from simms on the same day and these showed up 3 days faster. The product is comfortable and fits well on my feet. Keeps gravel out and doesn't slide up and down on the boot or my ankle. Easy on and off after the first time or two. Dries pretty quick as long as they're in a breeze or in the sun. I'm happy with them. I may order a second pair just for days I come out of the stream for a couple hours b...

William T.

I love the bag! It has a ton of room, and is the new zipper is very easy to open. The weight load is even distributed and there are plenty of places to add attachments. My only complaint, was the shipping. It was stuffed in a tiny box, and arrived to me with some hard creases throughout the bag that won’t go away. Hasn’t effected its waterproofing, but for $300, I’d like to be the one to put the wear and tear on it first.

I received my korker boots and love them. Wondering where to hook on the rock guards. The boa system is great. Went fishing the next day and picked up this 25 inch brown. I’m sure the boots helped me out.

Gabriel G.

First off let me say how grateful I am for the great customer service provided to me. My package was lost in shipping and the guys were quick to help me out and get me another reel sent out. Thank you guys, I really appreciate that. This reel was a perfect match for my 10’6 3wt Sage Sense. The build quality is amazing. Drag is very smooth. The reel it’s self is pretty large. It’s bigger than a 5wt reel. But this does help with line pick up as well as getting the reel to be perfectly balanced. ...

Jordan T.

I got these boots and absolutely love them! I hike in super steep country and also a lot in the flat desert. These boots are easy to walk in and give you the best ankle support there! You do have to brake them in like any boot, but are totally worth it! I love these boots and will probably buy these ones again!

These are the most awesome hiking boots. They are pricy, but well worth it. I called the shop and made sure my size was in stock, they were and they shipped out that day! Very nice and friendly customer service and I would recommend to anyone looking for a good quality hiking boot for women!

Kami K.

I LOVE these boots. They are extremely supportive, lightweight, and give me great traction. I’ve worn them for several miles on Colorado trails and they’ve held up great. I have flat feet, and always add my own orthotics, and there’s plenty of room for those. With a nice pair of hiking socks, I didn’t have a single blister breaking them in. Do yourself a favor and buy these!

When shopping for reels on zero weight rods, diameter, weight, and capacity are your challenges. This reel wins all 3 categories. This is my second Galvan Brookie 0/1 for my newest Zero wt Sage Dart rod. Keep it up Galvan, USA made!

I bought this fly rod specifically for chucking streamers, nice action, throws flies like a charm and I've already hooked into some Tiger Musky and large rainbows. It's a real joy fishing with this rod!

Great line for saltwater fishing. You can fish this line as a float or sink depending upon your retrieve. It moves through heavy wind and throws large flies with ease.

Landon P.

Bought these new wading boots for better comfort and safety in the California surf, PNW steelhead rivers and the streams and rivers of the Western US. I like that I can interchange the soles for different fishing applications. My first day using them was on the Upper Owens River of Mono County California last weekend. My feet stayed warm in below freezing temperatures, and I was rewarded with a couple beautiful winter run fish coming from Lake Crowley downstream.

Michael P.

Galvan Torq's are awesome saltwater reels. Great reels, well built, cost effective, strong, smooth drag! I was worried about not having a sealed drag system but didn't matter! After a week of fishing no, water debris got into the drag system. Came home soaked the reels let them dry as per instructions and they're ready to go! There are many great reels out there. Galvan is one of them!

undefined review of Fishpond Stowaway Reel Case image 1 out of 1

Alyssa H.

Fantastic bag for organizing reels for boat storage. As a guide, I love being prepared for anything. Streamers, dries, left handed anglers, malfunctioning gear... for years I've settled for spare spools and extra reels running amock in my deep storage. Not anymore. 9 extra reels/spools in my boat, neatly stored in a bombproof, padded, reinforced case. It fits perfectly in my side storage. Love love love. Thanks Fin & Fire for having a great stock of Fishpond gear and great customer service.

Scott B.

In my opinion, there is not a better 2 weight reel than the Galvan Brookie. The reel is a quality piece that has been well thought out. The simple drag works well and helps keep the reel super lightweight. In fact, I have not come across a lighter reel for your 2 weight rod than this reel. The design and available reel colors also make this reel very appealing to the eye. I fish a lot of small streams and my small stream arsenal contains 3 brookie reels.

Best hiking hunting boot of ever bought. Completely standing water and feet are dry. Was skeptical at first based on price but best decision I’ve ever made. I have very flat feet and I have no ankle problems in these boots,,,I would recommend these to anybody.

Mark M.

I’ve had this 20” (small) net for many years and it’s easy to use and see the actual length of the trout. It is very light weight. I zipped tied a magnet on the net end of the aluminum loop, put the other half of the magnet on the back top of my vest, and connected the loop onto the bottom of my vest. It works great!
