VIP Outdoors Fishing Tackle

I've had a close relationship with my friends at VIP Outdoors for a long time. They're not just great people; they also make some of the best fishing tackle for Salmon, Steelhead, and bottom fish. Here are a few of my favorite lures from their vast selection. These blades have the finest quality in paint finishes to provide ultimate durability.  The premium components make for an overall great presentation.  Every VIP Spinner is finished with a quality Gamakatsu 2x Strong treble hook. I can't recommend them enough.

Edge Fishing Rods

FSC SAR 360 Pro 1065-2 Salmon Rod

A perfect hybrid, with a tip that loads deep and recovers slowly to not interfere with the action of the lure. Are you using a flasher? No problem. Diver and bait? No problem.  Kwik Fish, plugs? No problem. 360 Pro because it is an all around workhorse that is preferred by the pros (and their clients!)

Maxima Fishing Line

Tuna Blue

The offshore fishing environment is no place for the weak of heart, or weak of line. With many species pushing the 1,000-pound mark, strength and durability are key. Tuna Blue incorporates the proven characteristics of extreme tensile strength to land world-class catches, and superb abrasion resistance to protect from razor-sharp teeth. But Tuna Blue offers even more: a molecular structure that delivers the industry’s toughest shock resistance.

Fluorocarbon

Virtual invisibility in the water with no sacrifice in strength. That’s the Maxima Fluorocarbon line, defined. Its advanced structure gives you enhanced sensitivity and extraordinary castability. A special finish with a UV-protection extends the line’s useful life. As always, like every Maxima line, it’s exceptionally strong and reliable under all conditions. With a low refractive material and non-flash components, the fish never saw it coming.
