Recently we’ve been stoked to see our Urbantrout eco-branded fishing gear making frequent appearances in the monthly must-read Eat, Sleep, Fish ezine…
… modelled by no-one less than its hard-working editor (and Devon School of Fly Fishing pro guide and instructor) Pete Tyjas.
Pete bought a hoodie and one of our urban steelheader beanie hats at the end of January, aiming to test them out for this Good Stuff review… and maybe also add a little extra pop to other product photography and road trips.
Since then, he freely confesses, they’ve taken over as his go-to fishing gear.
At this time of year we might have placed bigger money on lime green camo, but that pro-guide-orange hoodie actually looks like it helps him creep up successfully on our own personal nemesis: spooky little trout in super-shallow, gin-clear West Country rivers.
And maybe it’s just the effect of all that ambient orange… but don’t those trout look beautifully bright and colourful too?
Thanks Pete – and we hope your Urbantrout gear continues to bring you great karma on urban and rural rivers alike!
The full Urbantrout gear range including hoodies, t-shirts and caps is available to buy right here online, with a full 10% of profits going directly to help fund urban river restoration projects.
