FISHPOND WIND RIVER ROLL-TOP BACKPACK
WITH RISERS 4 RETT LOGO

The wind river roll-top backpack has ample space to transport gear through the airports and into the wild with comfort.

This Fishpond classic was improved by adding a thermoformed back panel and adjustable hip belt so you'll have this pack for the long haul.

Custom Risers 4 Rett 5/6WT ROSS ANIMAS REEL

A fully-redesigned frame and spool are highlights of the new Animas. The spool shows off the cutting-edge manufacturing techniques Ross Reels has developed, delivering a design that is incredibly strong and visually stunning. The Animas also re-joins the family by incorporating an ultra-light canvas phenolic handle which gets tackier when wet. A new trouble-free spool release yields zero-maintenance performance, allowing the Animas to be ready for any fresh or saltwater excursion.

The frame is accented by a machined silhouette of the Colorado mountains in Ross Reels' backyard.

Its uniquely ported design and structural profile are eye-catching industry firsts. The two-tone drag knob sports an updated aesthetic with a lower profile and increased grip. An improved composite drag system delivers more power in an established Ross design used and loved by more than 80,000 fly anglers the world over.

Family Friendly Half Day Warmwater Trip with Austin Parr of Discount Tackle.

Four Anglers. All gear provided.

Fish walleye and/or smallies on Cherry Creek or Chatfield Res

This is more of a gear/spinning trip with a focus on teaching kids (adults too) how to catch fish and learn techniques for walleyes and smallies. This trip will cement the kids' love for fishing.

Everything is included in these trips. Anglers will be equipped with some of the highest quality St. Croix rods available, and Austin's Lund Impact 2025 and Ranger 620 are outfitted with the latest electronics from Lowrance and Motorguide.

This was the trip Brad Billingsley took his son on at age 7 to rip walleyes. They've never looked back.

Good for the 2024 season.
