Catching fish is such a blast. Using a stand-up paddle board for fishing… even better! It is quite funny that if you fish from the shore, you want to cast farther or get just a little deeper more often than not. I was struggling with wanting to catch more fish and not feeling the price tag of buying a boat, so I did my research and chose a stand-up paddle board (SUP) for my fishing adventures.
When fishing, hiking, camping, hunting, or doing whatever it is that gets you outdoors, gear matters. I have tried a few different pairs of waders since I started fly fishing and let me tell you firsthand what a huge difference a good pair of waders makes. It’s everything! This is why I love the Orvis Clearwater waders.
