2013 Yamaha Grizzly 550 FI Auto. 4x4 EPS Best feature: Gets you to the fishing spots faster For traveling around in lake country, this powerful 558cc ATV is what you want. Using a camouflage design means you'll blend in easier with the decor. The electronic power steering, independent four-wheel suspension, and lockable or automatic 4WD means you'll get a comfortable ride. Extra-durable front and back racks provide plenty of space for tackle boxes and other fishing gear.![powerpot]()
PowerPot Best feature: Cooker doubles as a phone charger This thermoelectric generator is what you want after a long day of fishing. (After all, you'll need a way to charge your phone.) The 5V USB plug provides power for any phone, tablet, camera, or even a USB-connected fish finder or GPS. When you boil water, the generator converts the energy to electrical power.![patagonia_river_salt_jacket]()
Patagonia River Salt Jacket Best feature: High-tech durable fishing shell for cold days This fly-fishing jacket is made from a four-ply waterproof material that's designed to keep you warm and dry. The zippers are all waterproof and lightweight, and the cuffs seal to watertightness. There are three front pockets that provide easy access to fly boxes and other gear. The whole jacket weighs only 23 ounces.![Magellan_eXplorist_510]()
Magellan eXplorist 510 Pro Angler Best feature: Finding the best fishing spots Knowing where to fish is half the battle. The ruggedized eXplorist 510 Pro Anger includes some 4,000 lakes and waterways, but goes a step further: an indicator shows "points of interest" (aka, the best fishing spots) along with the ideal baits, lures, colors, and seasons. You can view 2D or topographical maps. A built-in camera and mic allow you to snap photos and record notes for a trip.![Guardian_Nomad_13Kit]()
GoalZero Guardian Best feature: solar panel and pack for a trolling motor An ingenious addition to your gear load-out, this solar panel and charger combo connects to any 12V battery, including one for a trolling motor. As you tool around the lake, you can fold the 10.5-inch Nomad 13 solar panel to continually charge. Goal Zero says the charger should keep you motoring around all day.![transitions_1]()
Transitions Vantage Lenses for fishing Best feature: Dims for bright sun and water This brand new lens for existing sunglasses or glasses is ideal for fishing on open water. The lens darkens automatically, but also adds polarization an UV protection. As the sun comes out or cloud-cover fills the sky, the lens slowly adds an appropriate amount of eye protection so you can see the water.Best high-tech fishing gear
