Quick take
A compact fly fishing combo with retractable tape and multi-use tools for streamside tying and maintenance.
This SAMSFX combo pairs a clip-on retractable tape measure with a stainless steel nail knot tool that doubles as a line clipper, hook sharpener and hook-eye cleaner. It suits fly anglers who want knot tying, trimming and fish measuring in one pocket-sized kit with a black grip. A D-ring lets it hang from a lanyard so it stays within reach on the water.

- Quick knot tying and line repairs on the water
