As part of the sponsorship, Stelmach will keep the following in her tackle box:
- Natrapel Tick and Insect Repellent – Thanks to its CDC-recommended 20% Picaridin formula, Natrapel provides 12 hours of protection from mosquitos, ticks and other biting insects commonly encountered while fishing. “On top of how well it works, I love that it’s safe on gear and won’t destroy my waterproof rain shells,” Stelmach said;
- Adventure Medical Kits – Adventure Medical Kits provide the necessary supplies and know-how to treat both common and severe injuries in the field. “Boating accidents happen,” Stelmach said. “Whether it’s a fish hook injury or worse, a lot can go wrong out there and Adventure Medical Kits’ compact, waterproof kits give me confidence on the water.”;
- After Bite Insect Bite Treatment – For more than 30 years, After Bite's pharmacist-preferred formula has provided instant itch relief for bites from mosquitoes, fleas, ticks and other common insects. "Some people I fish with always forget to apply repellent before heading out on the water,” Stelmach said. “That’s why I always have After Bite in my kit.”; and
- Survive Outdoors Longer – “The weather can change in a heartbeat,” Stelmach said. “On the water, we’re exposed to the full force of nature.” From emergency blankets and bivvies to multi-function survival tools and kits, Survive Outdoors Longer products can make the difference in a worst-case scenario.
