Stuff We Like Inspired by our Travel
Fishing should be fun. Part of that is art and food and other things that don't put fish in the boat, but nevertheless make you enjoy the process more.
To Those Who Like Big Butts (We Salute You)
If you like big ‘buts and you cannot lie, we have the perfect apparel for you, fresh from Buttwhackers on the Spit in Homer, Alaska. Great stuff from true fishing town.
Throwback Shirts for the Hungry and Thirsty Angler
I’m a big fan of fishing t-shirts – I have over 50 of them – particularly if they somehow incorporate a pop culture reference. I’m also a big fan of food, so any time I can combine all of those interests into one comprehensive package it makes me pretty happy. Here are a few of the best ones I’ve seen.
No Slack
I don’t remember how I stumbled upon the shirts from online retailer Slackertide, but as an obsessive consumer of popular culture who also happens to fish, it was a godsend. Whether you want Willie Nelson, the Golden Girls, Jonah Hill, Rick James, Magnum PI or Cheech and Chong to accompany you on your next trip to the pond, they’ve gotcha covered.
A Shirt That Supports Jugs
Jigalode – which, as their website points out, is definitely not “Gigoloed” – makes some serious clothing, like a performance hoodie whose sale benefits the Bonefish and Tarpon Trust. They’ve also teamed up with local Florida artists to produce gorgeous thematic shirts, like one called “Focus” and another called “Exotic Invasive,” both of which evoke distinct Florida experiences.
