Winch In Your Next PB With the Abu Garcia Revo SX Low-Profile Reel

　　As summer takes hold, thick vegetation continues to cover my favorite fishing spots. This means I need a rod and reel that can haul in a salad with my fish. However, I don’t fish competitively, so I can’t justify spending a mortgage payment on a reel. Luckily, Abu Garcia sent the Revo SX to test and review this spring and...

Midland Adds Repeater Access to Its Flagship Walkie: Midland GXT67 Pro Radio Review

　　“How about now?” 15 miles is a long distance for most walkie-talkies, but my voice was still coming in clear, transmitting from the Midland GXT67 Pro. Granted, this radio isn’t just any walkie-talkie, but a repeater-capable GMRS unit, and by leveraging a little radio know-how, it was booming over the heads of lesser handhelds. 　　The GXT67 Pro is the top...

The Pants That Changed My Fishing Wardrobe: Magellan Outdoors Men’s Pro Angler Joggers Review

　　If you had told me a year ago that my favorite pair of pants would be joggers, I would have laughed in your face. I would have found it even more ridiculous if you told me that I would be wearing them while fishing. Joggers bring to mind lazy Saturday mornings, grabbing coffee in Suburbia. Not outdoor pursuits. 　　However, my...

Fast forward to the present day, and I’d argue that the standard is slowly moving toward handheld releases. 　　More specifically, a thumb release. They offer a natural, open-handed feel at...
