Map the Xperience - IFTD 2019

Map the Xperience is a cartography company that is printing river maps on fabrics as well as traditional laminated paper. The map products can be rebranded for fly shops, customized to specific areas and include a QR code to download a digital version to your smartphone! Very cool idea, you should never be without a map!

Lyons Press/Stackpole Books - IFTD 2019

Added a few more titles to my reading list in the Lyons Press/Stackpole Books booth. Kirk Dietrich's Tying Bugs is now high on that list!!

Riversmith - IFTD 2019

I took an up close look at the Riversmith Riverquiver 2- and 4-Banger rod carriers. Lots of thought has gone into these with the goal of being the best available! The new black finish is sharp! And, the anti-theft design on the box will keep rods and reels secure!

O'Pros Fly Fishing Booth - IFTD 2019

Checked out the products in the O'Pros Fly Fishing Booth. New this year is the Third Hand rod holder, they also have a neoprene wader belt designed to better support the Third Hand , as well as several shapes of fly patch for your hat!

Shilton Reels - IFTD 2019

I got a hands-on look at the Shilton Reels now being distributed in the US by Flymen Fishing Co. Made and developed in South Africa, these reels were designed to stop ANY gamefish!!

Sight Line Provisions - IFTD 2019

I really love the materials, designs and aesthetics used by Sight Line Provisions! They've released new pendants, designs and materials this year, definitely worth a look! I really need to get one of their bluegill!!!
