2) Funny Fishing Shirt with milder humor

If your dad doesn’t want to wear a “pole dance” shirt, maybe this one is more his style?

It is currently available in sizes small up to 5XL.

3) Reel Great Dad t-shirt

I like the distressed look of this shirt and the easy to read text.

It gets the message across loud and clear that you love your dad, and he loves fishing.

5) Castable Fish Finder (help them catch more fish?)

Give the gift of more fish (potentially) with this cool piece of fishing gear.

This castable fish finder is great for shore fisherman to see what is out there.

There are lots of boat-mounted fish finders, but you cast this one out into the water
attach it to your fishing line and cast it out to get a glimpse of what’s under the water
great for those that fish from shore
creates WiFi signal and sends it back to your phone

The picture below helps give you some sense of scale. It is fairly small so it’s not going to take up much space in his tackle box.

This is a popular and well-rated fish finder with thousands of customer-submitted ratings.

6) Folding Fishing Stool Backpack

Another great gift for the angler that casts along shore and hikes in to remote, secret fishing holes.

He can sit and relax for a bit on this folding backpack/camp stool. (Maximum weight is 400 pounds.)

And the interior of the backpack is an insulated cooler. So he could put the fish he catches in their (bagged up first), or he could pack a lunch and drinks for his fishing trip.

Pretty cool product that would make a great gift.

7) Dedicated Fishing Pliers

Is your fishing dad still using old needle-nose pliers when fishing? If so, check out these dedicated fishing pliers. Change the fishing experience with these spring-loaded, aluminum pliers.

8) Underwear Camera

An underwater camera – like this 7-inch LCD unit – allows you to see what is in the water underneath you. It is particularly great for ice fishing.

The waterproof camera is attached to the above-water unit with a 49-ft long waterproof cable. (But you can buy a longer 98-ft cable for deeper water.)

The unit comes with a rechargeable battery that they claim can last 6 to 8 hours.

I think this would be cool just to get a glimpse below the surface and see what’s going on down there.

9) Outdoor Survival Gear Kit

If the Dad on your shopping list is heading into the woods to fish he should be prepared with a survival kit.

This popular and highly-rated survival kit from TRSCIND is a “14 in 1” kit including a folding knife, a fire-starter, a flashlight and more.

10) Wide Brimmed Hat

This is a thoughtful and practical gift for someone out in the sun all day.

A wide-brimmed hat like this helps keep your fishing dad protected from the elements and sun.

Plus, it even has a neck flap to help protect against sun-induced redneck syndrome. (I.e. sun burnt neck)

super useful gift
a gift that could last for years
shows you care

11) Polarized Fishing Sunglasses (by Fishaholic)

Not only do these sunglasses look cool, but they have polarized lenses to help look into the water.

They provide UV-protection on the lenses, and I like how the side pieces are fairly thick to help cut down bright glare coming in the sides.

They won’t fit over a pair of prescription glasses though, so if the dad on your gift list wears glasses already this won’t be the best choice for him.

12) Personal Neck Fan to help cool him on hot day

To be honest, I didn’t even know these things existed until just recently.

They almost look like a pair of headphones dangling around your neck, but it is actually a personal fan that blows air at you to help cool you off.

Would your dad appreciate something like this during a hot day of fishing?

It has a rechargeable battery that they claim can last 4 to 16 hours depending on what fan speed you’re using.

No need to hold a fan up to your face with a unit like this. His hands will be free to cast, reel and hopefully catch some fish.

I hope this list of gift ideas will help you find an awesome gift for the dad in your life that loves to fish.
