I've seen plenty of Father's Day gift idea lists, and almost all of them are suspect. Usually generic fishing gear being recommended by someone that knows nothing about fishing.
If dad loves outdoor activities such as camping and fishing, bring your A game this year.
Below is a list of gift ideas that are practical, for whatever type of fishing dear old dad likes.
Everybody needs a good pair of shades on the water. Convenience store sunglasses won't cut it. And for under $20, the price is right!
This single man inflatable pontoon boat makes for easy fishing. Portable and easy to assemble. Comes with plenty of storage, and a rod holder too.
Depending on your situation, most of us can't tote around our fishing gear 24/7. Until now! Everything an angler needs in a pinch - 50 feet of line, hook and a sinker. Did I mention it holds your beer? Chill and Reel baby!

Fishing knot tying tool, that also protects you, and the interior of your rig from hook damage during travel. Not just a cool fishing gadget, but a necessity in any tackle box.
You get the ole 3-1 special with THE ENTSPORT fish gripper. Not only will he be able to snatch dads catch out of the water with ease, he can also weigh and measure the fish too.
Basically the Swiss Army knife of fishing tools. This gem comes with a serrated knife, fish scaler, hook remover, scale, flashlight, tape measure, bottle opener and a foldable stand.
Spooling your fishing reels has never been easier. Also helps keep dads blood pressure down!
A true fishing chair with adjustable legs, rod holder and a cup holder for his cold beverage. Designed for bigger guys too!

Truly a safe choice if you're leaning towards gifting dad fishing lures. If he fishes predatory fish such as bass, walleye, muskie etc, he'll love these.
