Billfish Socks for Fashionable Fishing Feet
Most people probably think I have ugly feet, but I’m not afraid to show them off. Unlike my wife, who keeps her shoes on after she gets home from work and prefers to sleep in some decidedly unsexy tube socks, I’m barefoot whenever possible. That includes the few times I’ve gone billfishing.
Still, as Spicoli might be happy to inform you, there are times when it’s, “No socks, no dice.” We’ve already told you how to spruce up your look with billfish-themed shirts, shorts and neckties. Now we’ll help you complete the look with matching socks.
I’m not sure I’m bold enough to wear them, but Bird Dog Bay’s fuchsia Marlin Madness socks are jarring (also available in turquoise).

And the offshore empire also sells equally action-packed jumping sailfish socks.

Prep stalwart J. Crew offers some more subdued footwear.
So does the widely-available Goldtoe.

Someday we will catch a swordfish and Quaker Marine Supply may help us celebrate that achievement.
If those get covered in blood, we’ll rely on our pair from Socks and Souls.
