TFFF Holiday Gift Guide: Gifts Under $100

For that special person out there, here is the Texas Freshwater Fly Fishing gift guide to help you find the perfect gift.  Every gift on this list is under $100 and has a connection to Fly Fishing in Texas (in one way or another.)


Double Haul Leatherworks 

Fly Wallet - $85.00


Made completely by hand, and made to order. They are made using 6 ounce vegetable tanned leather with a lining made of real New Zealand sheep skin. The vast majority of other fly wallets use artificial acrylic “sheepskin”. The closure button is solid brass.

Designed to be different than others, so it was modeled after an envelope. It even has a trout stamp on the back (which can be omitted). Color options are either natural leather or brown. Made to be the exact dimensions of a standard 6”x3 1/2” Wheatley fly box, allowing you to place the wallet anywhere that you can place your box. The sheepskin is 6”x6” giving ample room for the day’s fly selection.

Shipping is free within the 48 states, and the turn around time is less than a week.

Howler Brothers

Kameron Hoodie - $95

A kindred spirit of our super popular and powerful Shaman Hoodie from years past, the Kameron Hoodie takes after it's namesake, Howler Ambassador Kameron Brown, by keeping it simple and styling. Combining a marled cotton-poly fleece body with a cotton-nylon hood and yoke, the Kameron is a warm companion for post surf session or just biking to the Speedway Mart. Available in Marled Navy and Marled Grey.
