10 Gift Ideas for Father’s Day: For Dads Who Love to Fish
Why is it so hard to find a Father’s Day gift for Dad? We may never know. However, if your dad loves to fish, at least you have some options.
The fishing folks at Rapala understand this problem all too well. So, to help those seeking some really great Father’s Day gift recommendations, they invited their top fishing pros to share some ideas that will put a great big smile on Fishin’ Dads everywhere.
1. Pro Dreams
Golfin’ Dads dream of playing in major golf tournaments with the world’s top golfing pros. Likewise, Fishin’ Dads dream of fishing in the Bassmaster Elite or Major League Fishing (MLF). If you’re going to fish like a pro, such as Jacob Wheeler, you need the right lures. So what’s winning? This Father’s Day, set your dad up with CrushCity softbaits, which have been responsible for generating big money for some of the top fishing pros in the country.
2. Help Dad Get More Organized
Some Fishin’ Dads have so many lures, tools, etc., they simply can’t find what they need, when they need it. Help your Fishin’ Dad spend more time fishing and less time looking for the right lures with a durable, see-through tackle tray.
3. Get Dad Looking Good on the Water
From t-shirts to hoodies, fishing dads are always looking for a new style each season to wear on the water.
4. Fishin’ Dads Love Their New Gear
Lures, tackle boxes, new fishing line, clothes – these are all great. But, if you really want to get Fishin’ Dad excited, surprise him with a new rod and reel! If your dad loves bass fishing, consider getting him a Fate +S spinning rod and ran Axum spinning reel by 13 Fishing, a brand that makes rods and reels for tournament bass pros.
5. Dad’s Love Telling Fishin’ Stories
Every angler loves to share fishing stories with their fishin’ buddies. Well, let’s be honest, anyone who will listen. To give your dad something to start the conversation, get him a 29-inch replica fishing lure and let him talk about “you need a big lure for the big fish.”
6. Measure Up
Some Fishin’ Dads really want to know how much their fish weigh. To help him know exactly how much his next catch weighs, get him a tournament-grade digital scale.
7. Put a Cap on It
Like lures, a Fishin’ Dad can’t have enough caps. If you want Dad to look good on the water, set him up with a cap that’s as cool as him.
8. Proven Lures that Work
Do you have a Fishin’ Dad who only buys stuff that is proven? In other words, they avoid the new and trendy? For this kind of Fishin’ Dad, a proven winner is needed – a classic, if you will. You won’t go wrong by getting him a DT, a lure that dives to the exact depth that an angler is trying to reach fish. It’s been a long-time favorite among tournament pros for years.
9. Big Value for a Frugal Dad
Some of us love a Frugal Dad. He’s the kind of dad who truly appreciates a great deal. For a frugal dad who fishes, check out the Blue Fox Super Vibrax Tri-Pack – three lures in one package that are proven to catch fish—such a deal.
10. Keep Dad Safe from Himself
If you have a Fishin’ Dad who keeps his fishing lures – hooks and all – on his fishing rod, give him some lure wraps to prevent him from getting his hands accidentally caught on those lures.
