Top 5 Camping Gifts For The Great Outdoors
1) Flip Reel Tackle Kit
That hand line fishing reel is going to need some tackle on the end of it. Choose small or medium hooks or a squid lure—each comes with a sinker and a swivel clip made just for the Flip Reel. Now all you need to do is cast a line and wait for the first nibble.
2) Collapsible LED Lantern - Set of 2
This set of adventure-ready collapsible LED lanterns is built-tough and backed by a lifetime guarantee. Each lantern goes button-free; just pull the handles to shine 30 ultra-bright LEDs that can last up to 12 hours of 360-degree brightness. Made with military-grade materials, the water-resistant, shock-proof lanterns are durable but lightweight and collapse down for easy portability.
3) Wood Pellet Fire Pit
Flame Genie: Premium Wood Pellets
4) Single-Use Emergency Phone Charger
Chargetab™: Single-Use Emergency Phone Charger - Lightning - 6 Pack
5) Bonfire Steel Fire Pit
The age-old tradition of sitting around a fire just got an upgrade. This sleek stainless steel bonfire pit is durable enough to last a lifetime. Its double-chamber build circulates preheated oxygen to fuel the flame, burning easily and with less smoke. Its minimalist design is as timeless as the campfire ritual itself.
