It is believed that the time spent on fishing, life is not credited. And indeed, a person who is passionate about fishing is able to devote almost all his free time to his hobby. And when a gift is chosen by the fisherman, it is no wonder that they immediately intuitively try to connect it with the passion of the hero of the occasion.
What should be considered?
It is good if the gift is chosen by a person who is aware of the intricacies of the fishing business, because there are so many nuances in it that it will be very difficult for an uninformed person to figure out. A gift to an avid angler, first of all, should be practical, that is, a fisherman can be useful for his hobby. If you donate a thing that formally refers to fishing, but is absolutely not necessary for a particular person, it will simply gather dust in the closet or on the balcony.
Of course, the hero of the occasion will thank for the attention, but he will think to himself that it would be better if you did not take on the purchase of specific gifts.
Therefore, the first thing that needs to be soberly assessed is our own abilities to understand what is at stake. Otherwise, even appeal to special shop, where everything is sold for fishing and hunting, will not save the situation: the seller is unlikely to be able to understand exactly what you want to present to a guy, dad, husband, brother - to lovers of fishing.
The second thing to do when choosing a gift for a fisherman - enlist the support of one of his comrades, such as anglers. Oh, they know exactly what is required of their fellow hobbies for jubilee, birthday, New Year's holidays and February 23. In this case, the gift will fall "right on target".
It is also useful to know in advance - fan of winter or summer fishing hero of the day is, This will help orient yourself in the equipment and accessories segment. It is also desirable to find out what kind of fish he prefers to catch, this will help to choose the tackle, bait and bait more accurately.
You should also consider how often a man goes fishing, how much time he spends there, how long he is going, what arsenal of fishing gear he has, how and where they are stored. And, finally, it is desirable to know, and which, in fact, the hero of the occasion most often uses the method of catching (whether it catches spinning or prefers float fishing, and, maybe, is a fan of bottom gear).
It should be borne in mind that every man, regardless of the trophies caught, is proud of himself and dreams of his merits marked by family and friends. And therefore it makes no difference whether he catches a large predator or is content with a small catch for dinner for a cat - in any case, it is worth adding “premium” gifts to the present:
- Cup "Champion in fishing";
- the certificate of honor "For the best catch";
- medal "For services to fishing";
- a figurine of a fisherman with a personalized engraved inscription "Ivan - the best fisherman on the planet."
Do not be shy, do not be afraid to praise the fisherman - this is impossible in principle. And after such a “premium” souvenir, go on to the choice of the main gift.
Original options
Any fisherman will say that he is not against a gift certificate to a fishing store presented to him on his birthday or for some other reason. Within the allotted amount, he will be able to buy for himself what he needs, but he will be grateful for the purchase.But what if you want to give something right now, while guests at the table, while emotions are over the edge - how to please the fisherman? Give an unusual gift. These include numerous «smart» gadgets for fishing.
Echo sounder - The device will help determine where they bite and whether to catch where they are already located. The device sends ultrasound to the water depths, and on the screen the structure of the bottom is determined, the depth, the presence of fish, and also where it is moving at the moment. Please note that fishing from a boat requires a more powerful echo sounder than when fishing in the hole, and winter fishing enthusiasts need to take a gadget, whose manufacturers have provided work in low temperatures.
Underwater camera - A video camera that completely deprives fishing of secrets, but does not deprive of excitement. It allows you to see everything that happens under water. A fan of serious fishing with the help of such a device will not only learn the conditions of fishing, but will also be able to learn more about the habits of different fish species: what kind of bait they prefer, how they behave when feeding differently.
In addition, quite quickly the fisherman will collect a real video from his own victories - the bite is recorded in the memory of the camera. Then you can endlessly watch videos with friends and exclaim once again: “No, well, look how I did it!”.
Protective smartphone case - phones or smartphones on fishing where water, snow, frosts, sand and other natural delights, often suffer, break, get wet, freeze, the battery quickly sits down. And because the wife, who can never get through to the spouse who went fishing, is simply obliged to present him with a “smart” case for the gadget. Such an accessory will help protect the device from freezing and moisture, sand penetration, and will also save the battery charge much longer. There are models that allow a smartphone that has fallen down, for example, in the hole, to float without loss.
Fire Rechargeable Batteries - the device in the form of a PowerPot pot will help solve two problems at once: it will boil tea and charge the phone or echo sounder. It is simple to use it: water is poured and put on fire, after which any gadget that needs recharging is connected via a special fire-resistant USB cable to the kettle. Thermal energy due to the mechanism at the bottom of the pot becomes electric.
The wobbler of the future - an amazing invention that mimics wounded fish very accurately. This is not just a fixed wobbler. This writhes, twitches and even makes quiet, one fish hear the sounds of a dying individual. Especially strongly it affects the predatory fish, which will go wherever it goes. "Wounded Fish" is charged via USB and does not require the purchase of additional replaceable batteries.
Self-locking rod - in general, the usual fishing pole, but only equipped with a hook mechanism. Skip biting with this will not work. The cutting itself is accurate, fast, the fish do not have time to "jump" off the hook. A very useful gift if the fisherman catches on a large scale, for example, on several rods at once. Imagine how tense he is, trying to visually control several floats at once!
Not to mention the situation when such an angler wants to step aside, and he is so afraid of missing a bite! This is where the self-interdicting “smart” fishing rod comes to the rescue.
Fishing vest - Any fisherman knows that everything should be at hand. This will help a warm, not interfering to move the vest with a mass of pockets for everything that an angler needs: for a telephone, heating modules, for glasses, documents, keys, drinking water, weights, blades, baits, for boxes and a knife. There is even a USB connector built into the vest.
- Float costume - this is a professional suit, which in the literal sense of the word will help a man to stay afloat. Seriously, he will save life if a fisherman falls into the water. The fabric pushes the human body to the surface of the water and does not get wet.Also, a rescue suit will not allow colds and hypothermia - it is airtight and protects against wind.
Equipment
A fisherman is always happy with equipment, but it should be understood that fishing gear is not usually inexpensive. All good requires quite substantial financial costs. But a husband, father or brother for his birthday do not need separate gifts from each family member, he will be much more happy if relatives and friends combine financial efforts and acquire something from equipment. The number of useful acquisitions include:
- fishing rod included;
- complete spinning;
- complete feeder;
- fishing special clothes and footwear for fishing.
A fisherman is unlikely to refuse a backpack, specially made for hunters and fishermen, you can present him with a fishing set (there are ready-made kits in specialized stores), various baits, accessories for tooling.
You can please the fisherman and not having a large amount. Within 500 rubles there is an opportunity to purchase jigs for fishing in winter, and within 300 rubles there is a reliable thermocup that will keep the heat of tea with the smell of smoke boiled over a fire for a long time.
Watching the bait, remember that for a beginner in this business, expensive spinning rods are not suitable, whereas for an experienced fish hunter, spinning is just perfect. Exact knowledge of the type of fishing used by the fisherman is useful here. If he is a fan of bottom fishing, take feederif you prefer trolling, take a special set, which is called - trolling kit.
If in winter a man hurries to go fishing every weekend, take a fishing pole for ice fishing.
Sometimes for some reason there is no real opportunity or need to take the bait entirely, and then it is possible to present a separate part to the fisherman (for replacement, for example).
Perhaps your hero of the occasion needs a new rod or a new reel.
If your fisherman has everything, and another fishing rod, to put it mildly, doesn’t need anything, take a closer look, perhaps a man needs comfortable thermal underwear, in which it’s not cold to fish in the winter, or a special jacket for the fisherman. Also, he can be pleased with additional accessories, such as catch cage, tackle carrying box, compact folding chair, tent, rubber dinghy, or ear set for cleaning and cutting fish and other dishes. A useful gift will be thermos (if, of course, it is not). And the winter angler will like motoledobur, to make the holes faster and without significant effort.
A real angler would be grateful if he received special scales for weighing a caught fish, as well as a high-quality fishing knife - he always has a decent use for fishing. Be careful in choosing a set of baits - basically such sets are in demand among beginners who have not yet decided on their favorite type of bait.
An experienced avid fisherman may be disappointed with a set of standard mormyshkas, because he always buys only certain baits, carefully choosing each, and he needs standard mormys "like an umbrella fish."
Comic gifts
Comic gifts must also be useful, otherwise their value to a man will not be possible. Therefore, we recommend the following souvenirs and sets.
- Frame on the car number with the words "Fisherman fisherman sees from afar."
- Thematic photo album "My fishing", where a man will be able to add pictures of the best trophies he caught and himself on a fishing trip.
- T-shirt "Fishmeter" - clothes with a symbolic "meter" to hold the fish by the head or tail; in the photo, for example, its length was immediately displayed.
- Name mug with a heat-resistant layer.
- Canned socks, - this is what the so-called “severe fisherman’s socks” are called (you can open the jar “in difficult times”, the socks are real, dry, new).
- Slippers in the shape of fish.
- Set "Toilet fishing" - sitting on the toilet, your hero of the occasion will be able to have fun with a magnetic fishing rod, catching toy fish from a small container with water standing on the floor.
- TOnig "The secret of successful fishing." The main advantage of the publication is in the cache, which is cut in the middle of the volume, if you open it. This volume is a way to legalize male “stashes” that really make any fishing more interesting.
- Moneybox-safe with a combination lock in the form of fish - Another way to legalize and make inaccessible to others their personal small savings (on a new rod).
- Glass "Drunk Fisherman" - the cup itself is skewed, crooked. It is made in such a way that even an empty one produces the visual effect of being filled with water with a fish swimming in it.
What can you do with your own hands?
The best gift is definitely a hand-made gift, but not in the case of anglers. On New Year's Day, Fisherman's Day, birthday, and other holidays, male anglers will be delighted to treat a set of chocolate, fish-shaped constructions of candy, a cake with mastic fishermen and fish, but only as a supplement to the main gift. Yes, they are not recognized. But they will be upset that they did not even present a set of mormyshkas.
However, from the children and the woman he loves, a themed cake and a pleasant verse about the father-fisherman will be very useful.
The best gift for the fisherman - beautiful and tasty cooked and served his own catch. There is no more reason to be proud than to inform guests that this pike was caught by his hands. If the man himself prefers to cook fish (there are a lot of cooks among fishermen), sew him a personalized kitchen apron with an embroidered inscription “Master Cooks Dima” or give him a ceramic plate with the inscription “For Dima Catch” and a symbolic fish pattern.
