At Outfitters North, we use only the best high quality gear and tackle in the business. These companies have sponsored me for years, I highly recommend their products.

Fly Fishing Gear, Clothing, and Boats

Orvis
I have been an Orvis Endorsed guide since the late 90's. They make great rods and reels that can handle everything Michigan has to offer.

Simms
What can I say, Simms have the best gortex waders and raincoats in the business. I've been wearing their outer wear since my days in Alaska. It's never failed me yet.

Patagonia
Patagonia makes the best undergarments in the business. They're enviromentally friendly with almost all of their products made of recycled goods.

Smith Action Optics
I wear there glasses rather I'm fishing, biking or skiing, day in and day out. I highly recommend there amber,copper or brown lenses for Michigan's waters. You will be amazed in what your missing on the stream.

Rob Reyher
Rob makes fine quality rods and landing nets. Check out my signature series Spey rods. They're well priced. I put my name on them because, they're a great casting rod for anglers new to Spey fishing.

Hyde Boats
I've been rowing Hydes since I started. They're the Cadillac of Drift Boats.

Rio
Rio makes some of the finest casting fly lines I have ever used.
