At the end of the day, we want our products to continue to hold up to the demands of both commercial and sport fishermen, those who work and play in the harshest elements mother nature can throw at them.”
Sport Fishing:
The Transmit X Jacket and Bib were designed with the open-water bass and lake angler in mind. From the early morning runs across the lake at high speed, to the wind-driven downpours, the Transmit X features a 100% nylon 15k/10k waterproof breathable performance outer for both the Jacket and the Bib. Digging further, the Transmit X Jacket boasts shingled neoprene cuffs for dunk-able fish landing performance, two fleece-lined handwarmer pockets with zippered closures, a placket center front zipper offering protection from the elements, internally routed cord adjustments on the hood for custom fit and reflective logos, and visibility striping for low light visibility. MSRP $199.99
The Transmit X Bib is finished with a full-zip center-front, angled thigh pocket for fast action access to soft plastics and fleece-lined handwarmer pockets.

The Bedrock Wading Boots deliver superior in-river experience and comfort for all-day wearability. Created with durability in mind, a water-friendly synthetic upper combined with scratched-rubber overlays in high-wear zones keeps wear, tear, and material breakdown to a minimum. The molded EVA midsole provides all-day support while two outsole options, rubber and felt, deliver varying capabilities. The natural gum rubber outsole is cleat/stud compatible and provides traction in mud, wet grass and light gravel situations, while the felt outsole is stud compatible and excels in rocky riverbed applications.
