What our customers say
“We’ve taken ours on backpacking and canoeing trips and caught enough fish that we didn't have to eat our prepackaged meals. With heavier line we've caught Walleye and Lake Trout, Muskie, Flounder, Bluegill and Pompano. As we get more experience with it, we appreciate the Daggerfish more and more. We've about quit carrying all our other equipment.”

Just about my favorite way to fish now. From North Carolina to Vermont. Fish on!!!
Thomas Jenkins
Caught a 12" brown trout on your hand reel with the wooly bugger lure. Thanks for a great product!

Just got your knife sheath. You’re not charging enough. It’s amazing. Quality of the leather, design and manufacturing is off the hook.
Craig Elliott
Beautifully crafted. Gave this as a gift for a backpacker and they loved it.

My husband described the day he caught a fish with a Daggerfish in the Catskills as the best day of his life -- "Sorry our wedding day," he said.

I've purchased 4 of these now. They are, by far, the best fly wallet I've ever owned. Finally, a leather fly wallet that isn't the size of a dictionary. Daggerfish really had their thinking cap on when they put this one together.

LOVE this! I needed a versatile holder for my Benchmade pocket knife! I don’t always have a pocket to clip it on. This is so versatile! I can attach it to my leather crossbody pouch strap, my belt, and my backpack strap! Thank you!!!

So glad my wife gave me a handreel and gear for Father's Day, I can't wait to get out on the water with it!
