Here we are! It’s Thanksgiving week, which means one thing, the holidays are QUICKLY approaching. If you are like most people, you’ve probably been slacking (nothing wrong with that!) on getting your loved ones gifts for the holidays. Fear not! We have you covered! Take a look at the Schultz Outfitters 2025 Fly Fishing Holiday Gift Guide!
For Anybody!
Turtlebox Ranger
To put it simply, the Turtlebox Ranger is one of the best Bluetooth speakers on the market. Its small stature gives it the portability to tag along on any adventure that you might be heading on. Like all Turtleboxes, it is extremely rugged. Waterproof, drop-proof, dust-proof, all the proofs!
Skwala Thermo 260 Base Layers
One of the newest products from our friends over at Skwala is the Thermo 260 Bottoms and the Thermo 260 Zip Shirt. This series is made from durable merino wool that provides all-day comfort and warmth, whether you are on the water or watching ball on your couch. Chances are, someone at the shop has had one of these pieces on every day since they released last month.
YETI Hopper Flip Soft Cooler
The Yeti Hopper Flip Soft Cooler is another item you'll find in the shop on a daily basis. On the water, these coolers are nice and portable and do an excellent job of keeping your refreshments cold. When you’re not on the water, they also double as exceptional lunch boxes! Made in three sizes, there is likely a model that will be perfect for you!
Benchmade Bugout Knife
Benchmade blades are something that you’ll find in the pocket of almost every guy here in the shop. We love ‘em! A couple of specific models that we really like at the Bugout and Mini Bugout. They’re some of the best EDC knives out there. Super lightweight. Super durable. They are perfect whether you are just out and about, or you’re out on the water.
For the Fly Tyer
Raid Zap XAct Bobbin
The Raid Zap XAct Bobbin is a tool that almost everyone here in the shop has at their tying desk. It comes with interchangeable heads and tubes so that no matter what you’re tying, you can tie comfortably and efficiently. It’s a must have if you’re someone who ties everything from 4/0 pike streamers down to 22 midges.
Sight Cast Ultimate Bodkin
This is an absolute workhorse of a tool. The Sightcast Ultimate Bodkin combines three tools into one. A traditional bodkin, a dubbing brush, and a comb. No more need to clutter your tool bar with everything when you can have the Sight Cast Ultimate Bodkin. At $13.99, this is a must have at your bench.
Semperfli Nano Silk Fly Tying Thread
A new addition to the shop, Semperfli Nano Silk is a gel-spun thread with insanely high break strength and serious durability. Whether tying little dry flies or spinning deer hair, this thread will do it all for you. If I was forced to use one thread for the rest or my life, it would be 100D Nano Silk.
Whiting Feathers
If you know anything about fly tying, you’re probably aware of Whiting Farms and their exceptional quality. Here at Schultz Outfitters, we are fortunate to have a healthy inventory of Whiting products, including some colors that you can only find here at SO! American Hen, American Rooster, Bugger Packs, Hebert Miner Hen, and more!
For the Streamer Junkie
Orvis Helios D Fly Rod
Orvis released their newest generation of Helios back in 2024. This has resulted in an absolutely incredible lineup from top to bottom, especially in the streamer lineups. The 8’5” 7wt and the 8’5” 8wt are some of the most user-friendly sticks on the market. The 8’5” models are much lighter than many of the competitors in their class while sacrificing nothing for power and accuracy.
Scientific Anglers SONAR Titan Full Intermediate Fly Line
The SA Sonar Titan Full Intermediate Fly Line is one of our shop favorites, used by many of our guides and shop staff alike. It's short, heavy taper excels in throwing big junk all through the season. Made right here in Michigan!
For the Purist
Scott G Series Fly Rod
They say all great things must come to an end. Such is true with the Scott G Series as it has been replaced by its successor, the GT Series. Since 2019, the Scott G Series has been a favorite of dry fly anglers everywhere. With it’s classic look and smooth action, it’s a rod that you want to have in your quiver if you are a big trout guy. At $595, this rod is an absolute steal. We only have a few left. Get them before they’re gone!
Ross Colorado Fly Reel
Who doesn’t love a well built click and pawl reel? The Ross Colorado is as simple, yet as durable as they come. It’s lightweight and can be used for a wide variety of your trout fishing situations.
Scientific Anglers Magnitude Smooth Infinity Clear Tip Fly Line
One of the newer products in Scientific Anglers’ lineup are the Magnitude series of freshwater fly lines. One that we carry here specifically is the Magnitude Smooth Infinity Clear Tip. With 10 feet of clear line on the front, this line allows you to make stealthy presentations to finicky fish.
For the Hardcore Saltwater Guy
Nautilus GTR Fly Reel
The Nautilus GTR is one of the newest members of the Nautilus family. Like all reels from Nautilus, they’re built to stop fish. With a 200 yard backing capacity (more if you use a gel spun or a braid), the GTR 8/9 will serve you well in nearly any salty situation.
Scientific Anglers Magnitude Smooth Grand Slam Clear Tip Fly Line
Scientific Anglers has changed the game with their Magnitude Series Fly Lines. Combine the gold standard of saltwater fly line tapers with a stealthy clear tip and SA’s new EST technology, you have a fly line that is slick, durable and will help you be an absolute assassin on the flats. From redfish to tarpon, the Grand Slam can do it all.
Cliff Bugger Beast Fly Box
Cliff has long been a staple in the saltwater game. The single slot foam allows you to stack in a healthy portion of flies for your salty pursuits (and for freshwater pursuits too!). Saltwater guys know that you can always use more Cliff Bugger Beasts!
Stocking Stuffers
Fishpond Predator Fly Pucks
Many of us have experience with the standard Tacky Fly Pucks. The Fishpond Predator Fly Puck just changed the game all together. If you are like us and tend to walk around with bigger streamers, these are for you! No more folding and smashing your flies into a small circular puck.
Scientific Anglers Regulator Spool
I can personally attest to the fact that the Scientific Anglers Regulator Spool is a game-changer. I’d venture to say that most people might have more lines sitting around than they do reels/spools. The Regulator Spool allows you to quickly change those lines whether you’re prepping for your trip or you are actually out on the boat. Every angler should have a Regulator Spool!
Orvis Tie-Fast Nail Knot Tool
Let’s face it, with nearly everything coming with some kind of loop on it these days, nail knots almost seem a bit vintage. However, most anglers still find themselves either using a nail knot, or wishing they had the ability to tie one easily. This is where the Orvis Tie-Fast Knot Tool comes in handy. Don’t get caught on the water without one! There’s never a need for a broken welded loop to ruin a day on the water when you should have one of these in your pack or vest!
If none of these do it for you, you can always get them some Schultz Outfitters Swag, or a gift card to their favorite fly shop (which is hopefully us!). We hope you all have a great holiday season. Cheers!
