Finn Utility: Fly With Style

You might not be an avid-fly fisher, yet – but after checking out the products at Finn Utility – you’ll start contemplating why you never picked up such a hobby. Finn Utility is dedicated to respecting the tradition of fly-fishing, using high quality materials and hand-making their products in the good ol’ U.S. of A.

Across the line, you’ll find fly-fishing goods created using the best waxed canvases, leathers, and brass . They have everything from reel holders and fly wallets to duffel bags. The company is dedicated to respecting the traditional aesthetic, but with modern conveniences. Classic, durable and useful products that will last a lifetime – like the Finn Utility Four Reel Case. It’s a case for your reels (obviously), but check out the lining. It’s lined in shearling for extra protection.

The Streamer Wallet is another twist on what would otherwise be a mundane item – an alternative to the plastic cases usually found on the market – this case is made from 18oz waxed twill canvas, a leather closure, also lined in sheepskin. There was some serious thought that went into this case – if dropped in the water, it floats and will dry in the sun.

And here is something that even the non-fisherman will enjoy – the Huntington Duffel – constructed from durable 18oz. waxed twill canvas and lined with tight weave cotton. Finn Utility even coats the bottom of the bag with a special oil for waterproofing and stain resistance. So whether you’re on a boat or looking for a rugged bag for that long weekend, they’ve got you covered.

Check out the full line of products at Finn Utility’s website.

Every new Game of Thrones spinoff explained
George R.R. Martin's television world continues to grow
Matt Smith starring in House of the Dragon

When it first aired on HBO in the early 2010s, Game of Thrones dazzled audiences with revolutionary special effects and terrific acting in a unique fantasy world. Based on author George R.R. Martin's series of novels, the universe depicts the battles between several different noble families as they try to climb to the top of the continent of Westeros, both politically and figuratively. The war scenes, family drama, and massive number of characters helped make the story feel fresh and new every time a new episode aired.

As Martin's attention shifted to television and away from his books, fans have looked to the TV series to finish some of the stories he couldn't finish on the page. Game of Thrones left fans wanting more, despite its poorly received finale, and a plethora of spinoffs are on the way. House of the Dragon already has two seasons completed, and there are several others in the coming years to look forward to.
House of the Dragon
House of the Dragon finished its second season in 2024. The show chronicles the heated family dynamics of the Targaryen empire almost two centuries before the events of Game of Thrones. The third season should pick up the civil war between Queen Rhaenyra's forces and King Aegon's after a slow-building conflict throughout the second act.
