Give $25 today and receive this compilation of more than two decades of Whitlock's popular Trout columns and illustrations. Dave keys in on the major categories of trout foods in this book: aquatic insects, crustaceans and annelids, a wide group of terrestrial insects, and vertebrates like minnows. It's a good read from a world-class fisherman, writer, artist, and instructor. Retail: $16.95
Utah-based Rainy's has been producing superior quality, creative fly patterns since 1971, including 49 of Dave Whitlock's signature flies. For this year's Embrace-A-Stream campaign, Rainy's helped us select six of Dave's most respected recipes including a #8 Whitlock's NearNuff Olive Sculpin, #14 Whitlock's Beadhead Red Fox Squirrel Nymph, #12 Whitlock's™ Bright Spot Beetle, #8 Whitlock's™ Dark Stone Nymph, #8 Dave's™ Original Hopper, and his classic bass pattern, the #6 Hair Bug in fruit cocktail. They're yours today, along with Whitlock's book, with your $50 gift. Retail: $36
Cliff Outdoor's Bugger Barn fly box, made in Casper, Wyoming, is simply the best streamer fly box on the market. It can handle a boatload of large flies, like the baitfish imitations Dave Whitlock is famous for, and its unique slotted-foam interior is made to grip hooks securely without ripping or tearing. The Bugger Barn is the perfect complement to our Whitlock fly collection, which you'll receive along with Trout and Their Food for your generous gift of $100. Retail: $58
The Orvis CFO reel is a reverent nod to fly fishing tradition. Introduced almost 30 years ago, this super smooth disc drag reel has evolved along the way becoming lighter, smoother, and tougher while maintaining that signature look and sound that strikes so many anglers. This special edition CFO features the laser-etched words "2010 Embrace-A-Stream" to subtly signify your commitment to the program. The CFO III weighs 4 oz., has a diameter of 3", and is rated for line weights 5-7. Retail: $230
The 2010 Hydros Series is the newest in Orvis' family of high performance fly rods. It's extraordinarily light, responsive and accurate as it utilizes Orvis' patented, and highly regarded, Helios rod blank.
This rod loads crisply, but nimbly, and feels supremely-balanced in the palm of your hand. On top of its performance, the Hydros features lightweight chrome snake guides, an anodized reel seat, super-grade cork handle, a handsome dark-blue finish and the hand-written words "2010 Embrace-A-Stream." This 9', 5-weight, 4-piece, Tip-Flex fly rod is made in Manchester, Vermont, and is covered by the Orvis 25-year rod guarantee. Retail: $540
We have a special rod in store for those who make the extraordinary gift of $2,500 or more to Embrace-A-Stream this year: a TU 50th Anniversary Orvis Helios rod. This acclaimed 9', six-weight, 4-piece rod is not only made with the finest materials and hardware available to Orvis, but yours will be one of only fifty ever produced. It features the words "Trout Unlimited" and the year of TU's founding, 1959, written on the blank. But perhaps the most unique aspect of this rod is the handsome leather rod tube. This custom-made case features an embossed TU logo and adjustable carrying strap with a brass buckle; it's a perfect way to signify your generous commitment to the Embrace-A-Stream program. Retail: $800
