TRYING STUFF SINCE 1938

Print advertisement circa 1984

We try things. That may sound like small potatoes. But more than talent, money, or good looks, trying is the fuel of progress.

It’s the spirit that pushes people up mountains, down rivers, and across continents. Trying led us to create our first fly-fishing vest, to reinventing performance fishing gear with unique features and product designs along with patented active cooling technology and fabric that blocks the sun’s harmful rays. And Trying Stuff led to PFG footwear that drains water and vents the foot.

product leadership Since the introduction of the Henry’s ForkTM Vest in 1960, we continue to design industry-leading products that are recognized as the “Best of the Best” by experts and consumers alike.

Performance Fishing Gear.

The most technical and comfortable fishing gear for anglers all around the world.
