Spring fly-fishing tips from Katherine Grand

Gear Court: Prois Apparel isn’t just for hunting

As an employee of Prois Hunting Apparel, I am lucky to have the majority of our apparel to try out in the field. I can speak from experience when helping our customers pick which items best suit their needs and advise them on temperature ranges, layering systems, camo patterns, and all other concerns and needs as they arise.

Read my suggestions on layering Prois apparel for comfort in extreme fishing conditions.
