daypacks by North Face….new features
and Laptop Sleeve for computer
protection. Check out the Recon, Heckler and Big Shot.
Summer Sleeping Bags…For the next few months
that 20 degree sleeping bag may be a tad “hot.” Instead, consider the North Face Equinox…35 degree rating and only 2lbs; or the Kelty Cosmic…35 degree rating and 2lb 10 oz. OR,
think about a fleece liner bag
instead of a traditional insulated bag…inexpensive, light, compact and can be
useful to extend the warmth of your regular bag on cold winter trips.

Tick Season is Here… 2 products make life safer. One is Permanone
Spray that you apply to your clothing…effective and lasts for up to 2
weeks…wards off other bugs as well. You
can buy clothes that are pretreated…but that treatment wears off. With Permanone Spray, you can treat the
clothes you already own…and retreat…and retreat etc. AND the Tick
Remover…the safest way to remove a tick that is embedded.
It’s Cookout Time… just what you need … a
2-prong stainless grilling “tool”
for hot dogs and marshmallows….that “screws” on to almost any stick. Tired of losing your
dog to the fire…or only burning on one side.
The Grill Things solve that and allow you to
grill like a seasoned outdoor professional…2 per box for $5.50. Don’t
want to cut a stick???...get a pack of 20”
toaster forks (similar benefits…but you may want to wear a glove…)

known around the world like the Tilleys…great hats for sun and rain

few other styles…
Bass Bust Boogle Bugs…popping bug season is
here…the best you can buy are Boogle Bugs. High quality equals durability…fish, after
fish. We have them in stock in four top
colors. Due to success…I’m already
reordering for smallmouth fishing.
Field Tested Bass Flies…We’ve added some excellent Bass Flies to our expanded
inventory…. These include custom
tied Deer Hair Bugs, Foam Sliders, and
“Magnum” Buggers and crayfish patterns…and a variety of Clouser Minnow
patterns…thinking about Bass, especially Smallmouth Bass, all are proven patterns that work in local waters.
