Reduce the amount of gear you’re packing to and from the lake by carrying the Kombo Fish Tool ($30). This fisherman’s multi-tool works as a fish “bonker”, a scooper, and a sharpener, and hides a high-quality stainless steel filet knife inside its plastic body, using a patent-pending locking mechanism to keep it from sliding out accidentally. Of course, it’s going to be around water an awful lot, so it’s also a good thing to point out that it floats — so there’ll be no need to go diving out of the boat on a tool rescue mission with this one.
