Finding a pair of waders you trust isn’t just a gear decision; it shapes how you move through the water, how long you stay out, and how much you enjoy the day. At Adamsbuilt Fishing, we’ve spent enough time on rivers to know that women don’t simply need resized men’s waders. The proportions, the posture, […]
A good rod earns its keep over time. It’s the piece of gear you reach for instinctively, whether you’re slipping out before sunrise or hopping a flight to unfamiliar water. And because fly rods are built for movement, they end up taking more abuse than most anglers like to admit. A stray knock in the […]
There’s a moment every angler knows, standing mid-current, current pressing against your legs, line drifting just right, and suddenly you realize how little you need out there. A handful of flies, a spare leader, nippers, floatant, and maybe a snack if the day runs long. Everything else just gets in the way. That’s where a […]
A good pair of wading boots isn’t just about staying dry; it’s about staying upright, moving naturally, and feeling connected to the river beneath your feet. For women, that often starts with finding a fit that respects the shape of your foot rather than forcing it into a scaled-down men’s model. The difference shows up […]
That first river trip is a mix of excitement and second-guessing, packing, checking the weather twice, and wondering if you’ve got the right line weight or if your boots will actually hold up. The truth is, a good setup doesn’t have to be complicated, but it does have to make sense together. Every piece should […]
There’s a kind of silence that comes with winter fishing, the kind that hangs over the water when your breath fogs up and your fingers sting a little. Most people pack up for the season when the temperature drops, but for those who don’t, good gear becomes more than a luxury. It’s survival for both […]
There’s a quiet moment before every good day of fishing, when you’re packing up. The rods are ready, the weather looks decent, and now it’s down to what goes in your bag. Every angler knows that feeling of checking twice, maybe three times, to make sure nothing’s forgotten. That’s where the right bag makes life […]
Every angler has that one moment they wish they’d packed better. Maybe it was a cracked rod after a long drive. Maybe a scratched reel that never quite worked the same. You don’t realize how fragile good gear is until it’s bouncing around in the back of a truck or strapped to a pack in […]
If you’ve spent any serious time on the water, you know the frustration of arriving with a bent rod or a damaged tip. It’s a gut punch after hours of preparation and planning. That’s why a 2-piece fishing rod case isn’t just a nice thing to have, it is a must-have. At Adamsbuilt Fishing, we […]
When it comes to fly fishing, the gear you bring can make or break the day. You can have the best rod and line in the world, but if your gear is scattered, tangled, or sitting in a flimsy bag, it’s going to cost you time and patience on the water. That’s where a high-quality […]
