The Humminbird 688ci HD Combo gives dad the detail he needs to see structure underwater and most importantly, the fish. It comes with an internal GPS with a single SD card door for cartography and recording screenshots that will allow him to record those great hot spots.

If he likes to fish on the ice, off a dock, or in the boat and likes to have the option of portability, the Lowrance Elite-3x Portable Sonar is a great choice, and it provides up to 60 degrees of conical coverage for displaying larger fish arches and allows for searching large areas.

Hunting

If you’re looking to get gifts for the dad who loves to hunt, Cabela’s has you covered, too.

schrade

The Schrade Survival Hatchet makes processing your trophy a snap, and is rugged enough to handle all of the chores around camp. The hatchet has a titanium-coated stainless steel head, hammer pommel, and TPR rubber grip over a lightweight fiberglass PA handle. It also has an extra-large ferro rod with a lanyard that stores inside the handle for starting fires, and it comes with a handy sharpening puck.

waders

If dad’s a waterfowler, the Cabela’s Instinct Warrior Waders are a perfect fit. The 3.5mm neoprene in the seat and knees provide extreme durability while keeping the wearer warm, and the liquid-rubber, seam-sealed legs are super durable and will remain flexible in any temperature.

For the big game hunter, the Cabela’s Outfitter 10MP Color HD Trail Camera will let dad capture full-color day and night video or full-color, high-resolution pictures. It comes equipped with brilliant LEDs, and it shoots up to 10-shot bursts and five to 60-second videos while being easy to use.

The Cabela’s 10-Tray Digital Dehydrator is the perfect gift to process wild game. The rear-mounted fan blows air straight across all 10 trays, cutting down on the work and eliminating the need to rotate trays. It also has an automatic-off timer that shuts the unit off once the timer runs, so it’s perfect every time.

Clothes and more

To keep dad looking good and with 10different color combinations to choose from, the North Face Men’s Venture Jacket is sure to keep him warm while bringing a smile to his face.

For dad’s best friend, next to you, of course, the Cabela’s Camo Berber Memory Foam Dog Bed comes with a two-inch layer of memory foam that cradles hips and joints and provides the ultimate relaxation after a long day in the field.

grill

For lounging around, the award winning Cabela’s Pellet Grill is a great choice; the digital controls and display eliminate the guesswork, and it has a simple-to-use cleanout trap for ash removal. The Cabela’s Pellet Grill makes everything from slow smoking to backyard grilling easy and pleasurable.

For all outdoor adventures, the YETI Hopper 20 Soft-Sided Bag Cooler is leak proof and rugged, it has a DryHide shell with RF-welded seams that offer the same leak-proof performance of whitewater rafts while easily carrying everything dad will need for that day in the outdoors.

Whether your dad is a hunter, angler, or just loves being outside, Cabela’s is the perfect choice for every kind of outdoor gift-giving.
