It's offered in [two different color variations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multitool-designs), a bright lime green and a nature-patterned light brown. The fish tool was devised by Ryan Jesse to provide fishermen with a simple way to carry everything they might need to gut, clean and fillet their catch. 14 inches in length, the Kombo works as a small club, which kills a live catch quickly and humanely. The interior of the device contains a [knife, sharpener and a cleaning spoon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compleat-cutting-board-set). A comfortable grip is coated in rubber to prevent slipping and the chamber of the fish tool allows it to stay afloat if dropped into the water. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.5/10 - Popularity: 95% | Activity: 91% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Sports](https://www.trendhunter.com/sports) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Multifunctional Tools:** The trend of creating tools that incorporate multiple functions opens up opportunities for innovative designs and increased convenience. - **Outdoor Gear Innovations:** The growing demand for innovative outdoor gear presents opportunities for disruptive products that enhance users' outdoor experiences. - **Sustainable Fishing Solutions:** The trend towards sustainable fishing practices creates opportunities for innovative tools that help fishermen minimize waste and environmental impact. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Outdoor Recreation:** The outdoor recreation industry can tap into the trend of multifunctional tools to offer innovative products that cater to the needs of outdoor enthusiasts. - **Sports Fishing:** The sports fishing industry can leverage the trend of outdoor gear innovations to develop cutting-edge equipment that enhances the fishing experience for enthusiasts. - **Sustainable Fishing:** The sustainable fishing industry can embrace the trend of sustainable fishing solutions by providing innovative tools that promote responsible fishing practices and conservation efforts. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Budget-Friendly Outdoor Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/outdoor-multitool.md) - [Multifunctional Sleek Camping Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camfy.md) - [All-in-One Fishing System](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/worming-catch-and-capture.md) - [Versatile Kitchen Multi-Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitchen-multitools.md) - [Compact Camping Multi-Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gerber-stake-out.md) - [Innovative Camping Multi-tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camping-multitools.md) - [Durable Outdoor Camping Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/outdoor-camping-multitool.md) - [Fishing Gear Cleaning Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tackle-washing-and-storage-device.md) - [Wilderness Exploration Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gerber-gear-stake-out.md)
