The only thing that would make Loon
tools any cooler would be if they pro-
duced them in black, and lucky for you,
that’s exactly what they have done with
the new Rogue range of tools.
The classic tools like the zinger, nip-
per and various forceps have all had the
Rogue makeover as well as a couple of
well thought out new additions to the
range like the Rogue Debarb Plier and
the handy — no lanyard needed — Rogue
Quickdraw Forceps.

Simms’ new Intruder Bicomp shirt brings
performance to fishing missions thanks
to materials working in concert to help
you fish. The main body is cut from
woven polyester for appreciable durabil-
ity, while knit sides and arm panels de-
liver comfort and mobility when casting
or rowing.
Built in COR3 technology boosts
quick-dry, wicking, anti-odour and UPF
30 sun protection. Two zippered fly-box
compatible pockets add valuable storage
to the equation.
Additional features include knit fabric
on the cuffs — keeping pulled up sleeves
locked in place — plus lightweight, low-
profile plastic snaps and a sunglass cham-
ois located inside the bottom hem.
Traditional fit comes standard. Avail-
able in Blue, Khaki and Sterling.

Kyle Adams is a great mate of Manic
Tackle, and an even better fly tier. His
detailed mayfly nymphs and attention-
grabbing stonefly nymphs have been in
high demand since they were added to
the range in 2016.
Light on bulk but big on movement,
these flies are real fish movers, and will
no doubt end up being regulars in your
fly box.
