Leland on the Fishpond Cimarron Wader/Duffel Bag
The Fishpond Cimarron Wader/Duffel Bag
is the bag to reach for when it comes to travel and serious wader
protection. This fly fishing wader bag is more than it seems, with a
monster capacity of
over 5,000 cubic inches can easily carry not just
your waders and boots but it can become your one and only quick trip
travel bag. For quick one or two even three day trips you just don’t
need to haul it all, with the Cimarron Wader/Duffel Bag you can stuff
it to top, keep your wets and dries separate and if it gets too heavy
there are convenient backpack straps. Because it is Fishpond you know
it can take the punishment so your waders and boots don’t have too. On
your next business trip to New York we think a side trip to the
Catskill Mountains is order, as long as you have your Fishpond Cimarron
Wader/Duffel Bag.

Leland on Luggage and Bags
The question is not whether to travel, but which bags should
you take? In today's one-bag-does-it-all world there's fine line
between what's a gear bag and a what's a travel bag. With today's
airline restrictions, AND since you just can't take luggage on the
flats boat NOR your gear bag big enough for a weeklong trip, you need
to find the right combination to get you and your stuff there! A good
travel bag should be able to carry not only your technical clothing,
but also all the now deemed "non airline safe" equipment (like all your
fly boxes). You may want the bag to be long enough to hold your 4 piece
rods (even ten footers), or you may even want wet areas for waders or
flats sneakers. The options are endless. That's why we've selected the
bags we at Leland travel with, and nothing else. (Keith has the
Fishpond, Karl has the Abel... you get the picture). Gear bags need
pockets and more pocket to carry a your reels and all your fly boxes
when you reach your destination. Since you can't take it all, these
bags are not only highly functional, they're stylin' as well!

Fishpond on Their Mission
“Many go fishing all of their lives without knowing it is not fish they are after”
Henry David Thoreau
“Thoreau's
words have a special meaning to all of us at fishpond. From our
perspective, fly-fishing is more than just a sport. It is an
opportunity for people to enjoy the wonder and beauty of the outdoor
experience. Our company exists to help them get the most out of that
experience.
Our mission is to identify and bring to market
innovative storage products and accessories that make fly-fishing
easier and more enjoyable. We're not interested in developing "me-too"
products. We intend to stand out by being first-to-market with product
concepts that represent breakthroughs in the fly-fishing storage
products and accessories categories.
To stay on the leading
edge of new product design, we started with a few simple ideas.
Bringing these ideas from concept to reality was a challenge, but we
believe our initial products offer just the right blend of
state-of-the-art design, unmatched functionality and great value.
In
all that we do, we want to be recognized as a role model for the way we
approach our business, treat our associates and work with our
dealer-partners. We want everyone we work with to think we're more than
just a great company. We want them to think we're great people, too.”

Fishpond on Fishpond
"Two friends and a passion for fishing. It all
began near the banks of a large beaver pond high up in the Colorado
Rockies on a crisp fall outing. While the fishing was productive,
something even more exciting happened on the water that day.
Between
casts, our conversation turned to fly-fishing accessories and how most
of our gear was adapted from products not designed for fishing. As we
talked, new ideas and designs began to flow. Before the sun began to
drop behind the peaks that October evening, the idea for fishpond was
born.
Fishpond is the fly-fishing industry's newest and most
innovative accessory products company. We're small, but our products
are already making more than a few ripples. By rethinking product
design from the ground-up, we've created an impressive line up of
fly-fishing storage products and accessories that look great, and
outperform anything else available on the market.
We started
with a few simple ideas: design and create a tippet dispenser, develop
an innovative cutting tool or clipper, and reshape the fly storage
category with the creation of a series of soft-sided cases and chest
packs. Our simple ideas turned into very complex design obstacles and
challenged some of the best industrial designers in the country, yet
we've succeeded with our vision and created a line of revolutionary
accessory products that will stand the test of time.
Fishpond
is all about design and function. We are the first to bring a
functional tippet dispenser to the market-one that stores, straightens,
cuts and dispenses tippet material directly from most commercially
manufactured freshwater tippet spools. Look for our saltwater version
in the coming months. Tired of plastic and aluminum fly boxes? We've
also created an entirely new product category with our molded nylon and
soft-sided fly cases. With ease-of-use in mind, brightly colored
jacquard webbing on the spine serves as a hand strap to securely hold
the case while on the water. This gives our cases their signature style
and unparalleled function. To keep us on the cutting edge, we're
redefining the accessory segment with revolutionary products like our
patented, ergonomically designed Titanium Clippers with optional
integrated retractor that make competitive tools based on the
traditional nail clipper obsolete.
Our research has told us
that fly-fishing enthusiasts want to lighten their load. In response to
this trend, fishpond has created two new chest/fanny packs that can
complement or replace the traditional fishing vest. Each product has
our signature zip-down "fly bench" with a replaceable foam fly page
that serves as a convenient fly changing station and work area. At
fishpond, we're committed to staying on the leading edge of fly-fishing
product design, and we're already hard at work on the next generation
of new products to enhance our position as an emerging leader with our
dealer-partners and customers. Fishpond is connected to the past and
it's timeless traditions, but its focus is on making designs for the
fly-fishing enthusiast that will endure the future. We're committed to
our dealer-partners and consumers at every level, and want to earn your
trust and support by offering quality service, delivery and
creativity."
