When the riverbed is slick, uneven, or pushy, a dependable wading staff can be the difference between staying upright and taking a swim. The Simms Pro Wading Staff is built for anglers who demand maximum in-river stability without carrying extra bulk. With a durable, ultra-light hybrid carbon-fiber and aluminum construction and a smart one-handed deployment system, this staff is ready in seconds—so you can keep your focus on footing, current seams, and the next cast.
The Pro Staff’s unique single-hand deploy mechanism puts support at your fingertips fast, making it ideal for quick transitions: stepping off boulders, crossing deep slots, or navigating algae-slick rock. Once deployed, you can fine-tune fit and reach with an adjustable 120–140 cm length, secured by an integrated flick-lock mechanism for confidence under load.
Comfort matters on long days, and the cork foam composite handle delivers a secure, comfortable grip even when wet. For dependable traction, the staff features an integrated carbide tip that bites into river rock and substrate, plus a removable rubber tip for travel, trail use, and quieter steps on hard surfaces.
Simms includes everything you need to keep the staff secure and easy to carry: a built-in wrist strap, leash, and a neoprene sheath to protect and stow the staff when you’re hiking, rowing, or moving between runs.
