Rory Brown, Jr. of Charleston, SC Shares 7 Gifts for Fishermen.

If someone in your life would rather spend time on the water than on dry land, you may be struggling to find an appropriate gift. These ideas of what to buy will probably come easy if you are an avid fisherman, but what about your friends and family members who don't know what to buy for you?

Here are 7 great gifts any avid fishing enthusiast is sure to love:

#1. Fish Finder

A big part of fishing is knowing where the fish are, and that is where a fish finder comes in. Outfit their boat with a fish finder and use the sonar and other technology to find the most promising fishing holes.

Even if your friend has a fish finder already, they may appreciate an upgrade to a new version.

#2. An Insulated Cooler

An insulated cooler is an indispensable piece of equipment. A good cooler will keep those fish fresh and ready to eat for hours on end. Even catch-and-release enthusiasts can use the insulated cooler for an assortment of their favorite beverages.

#3. A Great Pair of Sunglasses

A quality pair of sunglasses of polarized sun glasses is a great gift - one that will be used and appreciated every time they head out on the water

#4. A Set of Filet Knives

Filleting a fish can be a challenge, especially for the uninitiated, but a good set of filet knives will make the job easier. Look for filet knifes with good weight and balance, and make sure they are designed specifically for filleting fish.

#5. An Assortment of Lures

A variety of different lures to catch a particular type of fish is a great gift. The recipient of your generosity can try out the different lures and find a new favorite, and you can learn a little bit about fishing and why it is so popular.

#6. A Gift Card for a Local Taxidermist

A full mount on a large fish can cost hundreds of dollars, but a gift card from you can help offset the cost. Just shop around for local taxidermists, get references and choose a gift card for the best one in the area.

#7. A New Fishing Rod or Reel

Purchasing a new fishing rod or reel is an amazing gift that will immediately put a smile on the face of the recipient. Because fishermen are very selective of their fishing rods and reels, this gift is slightly riskier. If you are not certain of their preferences, speak with the employees of the local tackle shop.

Fishing is fun, but it can also expensive. If you have a fisherman on your gift list, you can make their life a little less taxing by choosing one of the gifts listed above.
