Spring is about to show its colors, and that means one thing: it’s time to crank up the stoke and hit the water! Whether you’re down south chasing elusive bonefish, permit, or golden dorado in the tropics, or reeling in the thrill of PNW steelhead, this season is all about gearing up for the next big adventure—doing it in style—and maximizing your time on the water.
Traveling South with Confidence
If your dream trip takes you to sunny destinations like Belize or the Bahamas, our Travel Pack is your ultimate travel buddy. Launched in July 2024, this bag is more than just luggage—it’s your personal insurance policy for all your fishing adventures. Designed to safely stow everything from your prized rods and reels to your clothes, laptop, and dop kit, it’s already making waves among destination anglers.
In fact, it’s even in the running for Best New Luggage in the Fly Fishing Show’s Consumer Choice awards! Ready to cast your vote and join the travel elite? Click here to vote. Also, take a look at what our ambassador Jesse Males had to say about it a few months ago.

Floating with the Best
For those who live for raft fishing, the Swiftcast Rod Holder is an absolute must-have. Engineered to securely hold your rigged rods, this innovative holder lets you install it virtually anywhere on your raft—whether it’s inboard, outboard, forward, or backward. At $500 for a set of two (complete with mounting hardware), it’s designed for versatility and unmatched convenience. And while you’re fine-tuning your boat setup, don’t miss out on our fan-favorite bags: the Convoy Hauler and Duffel 45.
With their internal waterproof roll-top systems and nifty thru-zip access, these bags ensure that your gear stays dry and instantly accessible—perfect for those spontaneous moments on the water.
Spring Cleaning
Before you launch into your next adventure, take a moment to give your gear some love. Whether it’s checking your waders for leaks or swapping out an aging fly line, a bit of maintenance now can mean never missing that epic catch later. Every Riversmith product comes with a detailed maintenance guide in its User Manual. And if you already rock a River Quiver or Swiftcast, be sure to check out our super helpful video featuring Rick Mikesell, where he walks you through the essentials of keeping your gear in prime condition.
In a nutshell, spring is here, and it’s beckoning you to Heed The Call, as our friends at Howler Bros would say! With Riversmith handling the heavy lifting on your gear, you can focus on dialing in your cast and landing your next PB. Here’s to a season full of fun, adventure, and unforgettable catches—new adventures and lots of time outside. Hope to see you out there!
