Our friends at Skwala Fishing in Bozeman, Montana, continue to lead the pack in the fly fishing world through innovation. Product designs that solve problems and enhance the angling experience, that's become the norm when we talk about fishing with gear from the Bozeman fly fishing company.
Skwala Fishing Spring Essentials
No longer the "new kids on the block," their Carbon and RS waders have been in use by the guides here at Fins and Feathers Guide Service for years now. Whether we are talking insulation, sun protection, or wading boots, the Skwala Fishing lineup is purpose-built and built with quality.
New introductions for early 2026 include a handful of apparel accessories and the most comfortable fishing pant that I currently own.
Backeddy Fishing Pant
Tough, stretchy, water-resistant, dries quickly, and is soft to the touch. Who wouldn’t want to wear some pants like that for messing around in the Great Outdoors? The Backeddy Fishing Pants are all these and packed with functionality too. Open pockets, zippered pockets, and tool caddies for essential fly fishing accouterments complement the technical fabric package and athletic cut. Did I mention that they are comfortable too?
Technical Details
- Made of Toray double weave Primeflex 4-way stretch fabric
- Abrasion-resistant on the outside, soft next to the skin
- Dual jean cut pocket, dual zippered pockets, dual rear pockets – one zippered and one open.
- Easy access tool caddy pockets for the essentials when wading from the boat or walking the flats.
Gloves
That’s right, gloves. Not so exciting at first glance – I admit. However, as with everything else in the Skwala-verse, the meld of angling authenticity and product design turns something kind of boring into something that you can’t live without once you try it. Now anglers have a glove for every situation, including heavy rains, cold mornings, and rowing in the blistering sun, packed with Skwala Fishing ingenuity.
RS Waterproof Glove
Fully waterproof with taped seams and reinforced cuffs. Breathable and stretchy fabric is sensitive enough to let the angler feel the line and keep fishing in the rain or cold.
Thermo 300 Gloves
Fingerless gloves with just the right blend of primo Merino wool and spandex. Reinforced palms add grip for slippery cork handles and improved durability for hearty anglers.
Sol Tropic Glove
Anglers everywhere have come to appreciate the necessity of sun protection for the backs of their hands. These are the perfect sun glove with a 40+ UPF rating and a fabric-free palm.
Montana Fly Fishing Gear for the Extremes
As we transition from winter to spring to summer here in Southwest Montana, unpredictable weather defines a day on the water right now. Regardless of the season or where we happen to be fly fishing from one day to the next, Skwala Fishing products live up to the demands of extreme conditions and careless use. Our Bozeman MT. fly fishing guides live and work in this stuff because it lasts, solves problems, and keeps us comfortable at times when comfort just doesn’t seem possible.
Skwala Fishing products can be purchased at the Skwala HQ in Bozeman, fly shops around the globe, and directly with Skwala Fishing Online.
