UNIQUE FISHING GIFTS FOR EVERY ANGLER ON YOUR LIST
Our stockings are hung by the chimney with care, but some of our holiday shopping is still up in the air. Still searching for the perfect gift for your favorite angler? Here’s what’s on Waterfall’s list (and hopefully under our trees!) this year.
Psssst! You're going to want to make sure you check out the last gift idea. It maybe #18 on the list, but it'll definitely be #1 on yours.
THE CHEF
For the angler who’s here for the food:
-
Thinking of giving your friends or family a trip to Waterfall Resort? Why not wrap up 10 tins of Fishwife tinned fish so you can gift them a taste of Alaska as you surprise them with the trip of a lifetime.

-
Recommended straight from our kitchen crew, Fish Without a Doubt is a go-to guide for cooking seafood with confidence. Rick Moonen’s practical, technique-first approach makes everything from grilling to pan-searing feel approachable.

-
These cedar planks for grilling are an ideal gift for both grilling enthusiasts and beginners. This set is sure to impress and delight anyone who enjoys grilling, making this plank for fish an appreciated gift.

THE STORYTELLER
For the angler who’s here for the story: -
We all know how fish stories go. Here’s a “little” something for the ones with big imaginations.

-
The DJI Osmo Action 5 is built to capture every strike and splash, while the Osmo Pocket 3 Vlog Combo makes filming your entire trip smooth, simple, and hands-free. Together, they make it easy to relive the adventure long after you’re back home.
-
Pour a drink, sit back, and let Field Ethos Quarterly Journal inspire you to create your own stories.

-
Capture the perfect shot of your catch? Turn it into canvas art! We suggest hanging it in the living room, right over the mantle.

THE STYLIST
For the angler who's here to look the part: -
A favorite for long days outdoors, the Florence Marine X Airtex Long Sleeve Hooded Shirt goes beyond sun protection with breathable, quick-drying performance that keeps you cool and comfortable. Built to move, resist odor, and handle everything from deck time to downtime, it’s an easy go-to on and off the water.
You can find the XtraTuf Legacy boot on every boat at Waterfall Resort. Add a little flair with the Salmon Sisters collaboration boot. Talk about form and function.

THE BASICALLY-A-PRO
For the angler who’s here as a pro, well... almost: -
One of our own guides crafts excellent jigs that are used all season long at Waterfall Resort. We highly recommend them for passionate anglers or those wishing to relive their unforgettable trip to Waterfall Resort.
-
If our guides use it, then you know it's worth it, and you'll definitely spot this Grundens Waterproof Backpack being carried around by basically every guide here at Waterfall Resort.

-
Looking for equipment recommendations? We got you! This G Loomis 9ft Rod is high on the list and the Shimano Tekota A Line Counter Reel. Look to have some fun with an electric reel? The name says it, check out the Shimano Beastmaster Electric Reel.

-
They say dress for the job you want, and Grundens bibs are an absolute necessity for any illustrious career in angling. The Harvester Pros and Neptune Women bibs are 100% waterproof but still have stretch for all-day comfort on the water. (Don't worry, you don't need to bring any gear when you're coming to Waterfall Resort for your Alaska fishing adventure, we got you covered!)

-
For those wanting the real tale, the Meter digital scale is small but mighty, accurately weighing any catch up to 110 pounds!

THE WHOLE FAMILY
The angler who’s here to start 'em young: -
We can’t resist these fishing-print onesies from Caden Lane and Kyte Baby—they’re reel cute and full of fin-tastic details. Perfect for little ones who are already hooked on the fishing lifestyle.

-
The Little Angler book set was created to engage and educate young children on common names of game fish and the tackle used in fishing.

-
It’s never too soon to outfit your smallest fishing sidekick. These Xtratuf Sesame Street boots have sparked plenty of smiles—even from the most seasoned, hard-to-impress anglers.

-
Because no one should be left out of the fun, even the pets get their own “fishing gear.” From Tall Tails’ natural leather crunch fish rope toy to a playful fishing-rod teasing stick, these picks let dogs and cats get in on the action—hook, line, and sinker.

FOR...EVERYONE!
-
Finally, for those who dream of Alaska—or are already plotting their return—we recommend gifting the adventure of a lifetime with a trip to Waterfall Resort.
