This made for a fun surprise while prospecting for smallmouth yesterday! The rivers are low and clear, but getting to see the fish before they eat makes this one of the most fun times of the year to go smallie fishing.

Our shop owner Adam recently summited Mt Wachusett in his ANETIK hoodie on a sunny hot day. The hoodie is lighter than a T shirt, dries in roughly 30 seconds, and has SPF protection from the sun. It's the perfect shirt for any outdoor activity! We JUST got a new shipment of ANETIK at the Albemarle Angler. Come get your ANETIK at the store!
