FAQS
A waterproof harness and collar (our Tough Trail harness and collar are great choices), a collapsible bowl and fresh water, a dog life jacket to keep them safe on the water, and hose-off seat protectors are the essentials you need to keep your dog happy and safe on your fishing trips. We also recommend a dog travel first aid kit—ours rolls up and packs easily into a sling bag or your dog’s saddlebags.
Right here! It’s the Whiskey Leatherworks Adjustable Collar in a brown trout or rainbow trout pattern.
The best tips for fishing with dogs are 1) stay safe 2) have fun. Safety is for everyone—you, your dog, and anyone on the water with you. Dogs on fishing trips, whether you’re casting from the shore or from a boat, should know their commands and mind their manners. On the bank, keep your dog leashed if there are other anglers around. If it’s just the two of you, make sure they’ll come when called before letting them off-leash. For fishing public lands with your dog, check the regs to make sure they’re allowed before you head out. On the boat, your dog might need their own life jacket, but they’ll definitely need boat manners. You don’t want to be the person whose dog jumps in the water to “retrieve” the fly your buddy just cast. Watch out for your rods, too—dogs and boats are a recipe for broken gear. Follow these tips, and it’s almost guaranteed you (and your dog) will have a blast.
