SUNBLESA Waterproof Lamp Review

by

I wanted to do a quick SUNBLESA Waterproof lamp review as I’m super impressed with this little lantern. I was looking for a small, rechargeable lamp that I could use in dark spaces (obviously) that could be used anywhere. Specifically, I wanted a light I could use on my boat, Striper fishing at night, overnight cooks on my smoker, and a light source while… ...Read More

This is autism awareness done right. Autism Anglers and SixGill fishing got together through the Sixgill Cares initiative to help raise over $40,000 for Autism Anglers.

Line Cutterz Dual Hybrid Micro Scissors

by

I picked up a couple of the Line Cutterz Dual Hybrid Micro Scissors once I found out as I needed a replacement for my Boomerang Snips. I was a big fan of the snips, but after a while, they stopped cutting my braid cleanly and the blades started to rust. It became a struggle to cut the braid and they would fray the line. Honestly, for the price of the snips you can’t… ...Read More
