Special Edition Products to Help Protect Bristol Bay

02.28.19

As you prepare for the 2019 fishing season, a few brands have stepped up by offering special products that contribute to the campaign to protect Bristol Bay.  It’s been a long fight, as you know, and we hope that you consider these products, whose sale proceeds will support the ongoing efforts to stop the Pebble Mine. The three brands here are just a few of many that are members of the Businesses for Bristol Bay coalition.

Note: Pebble Mine is inching closer to approval. Read this article for an update, then stay tuned because Bristol Bay needs your help!

Fishpond – Wind River Roll-Top Backpack // $199 retail; 50% donation from Fishpond

SPECS

  • 1680D TPU coated Cyclepond Fishpond fabric
  • 2.7 lbs
  • 24″ (when rolled 3 times) x 12″ x 8″
  • Height measures 31″ when unrolled
  • 38L max volume (2318 cubic inches)

Fishpond upped the fabric strength to be 4x as durable than the prior generation of this submersible pack, so this product is solid choice for a remote fly fishing trip in Alaska.

Fishpond has these in stock, and will screen print the “No Pebble Mine” logo on each pack ordered by you. Bags must be ordered by March 10.

Plus, a generous donor has agreed to match the $100/bag donation from Fishpond up to 50 bags.  This means that for every $200 bag sold, $200 will be donated on the first 50 bags…and $100 for every bag sold beyond 50.  The matching donation will raise an additional $5,000 which is very much needed to help fight Pebble.
