Want to Join? It’s simple. Recycle your old gear the next time you offload.

If your buying station or co-op donates the most gear, you and your crew could get outfitted with fresh GUY COTTEN bibs and XTRATUF boots…


Bib Drop Program

Here at Rugged Seas, we’re all about our working waterfronts. Fishing has shaped, and supported our coastal communities for centuries. Being a fishing family gives a great sense of pride and we found a few other companies who believe this too.

We are excited to announce that both Guy Cotten and XTRATUF have joined our efforts to give back to the men and women participating in our Bib Drop Program!

WANT TO JOIN? WANT FRESH GEAR?

It’s simple. Rugged Seas has set up 11 barrels throughout New England. If you’re a fisherman, check the list below to see if your co-op or buying station is on the list. If it is, start donating at your next offload. If not, fill out the form below, and let’s get you started!
