Howler Brothers Aguacero Jacket
If you fish in the spring, there's a good chance you'll run into some inclement weather. Meticulously designed and tested, Howler's brand new Aguacero Rain Jacket is constructed of 2.5 layer nylon bonded lightweight fabric with a touch of spandex to keep you freewheeling when you get out there in the deluge. The taped seams and waterproof zippers keep the water out and your core cozy but the vented sides allow you to open up and let off some steam when things heat up. It is fully packable into the hood and features western-style front pockets, bungee drawcords and Bros Bolt logo.

The Freestone Ambidextrous Sling keeps all your required gear at the ready. The 18L fishing carryall has an array of pockets for positioning everything from camera to tippet to flies at your fingertips.

And four zippers allow easy access to the main body, while compression straps hold your rod for the approach and return hikes.

BWO's, Caddis and Wind are three certainties of spring and if you're looking to cut through those power Rocky Moutain winds while throwing dry flies, we can't think of a better rod than the Winston Air.
