The Under Armour fishing shirts are the tits. Just as good or better than Columbia.

I picked up a couple of orvis shirts on close out a few weeks ago. The open air caster I think it was called. Quickly became my favorite, comfortable, but the biggest reason is most of the fishing or tech material shirts stink like hell for me after only about 5 minutes. This one does not do that even though another orvis shirt I have does. I don't know what the difference is but I'm sold.

I wear long sleeve Magellan performance tshirts from academy and Columbia pants. I did visit the Columbia outlet in Destin this past weekend and got some great deals. Got a new pair of pants and one of those long sleeve performance tshirts with the hood and some drainmaker IIs.

A string bikini with a tight thong bottom.

Oh, this is about what men wear? Something you don't mind getting dirty and keeps you cool. I usually wear an old swimsuit. Columbia with a couple of pockets. Sleeveless drifit shirt or shirtless. Flip flops or barefoot.

Typically for me it's swim trunks, no shirt, Tilley hat. I just wear sunscreen. Most of my fishing is either wading or kayak fishing. I've tried the whole long sleeve performance shirts and I just get too damn hot. Once I get my summer base tan I don't burn, but still put on sunscreen before I head out to the water. If I'm in the gulf in the yak I wear a PFD

My son loves his HUK shirts, wears them all the time. He has all different types but says the HUK are the best ones. I just wear Columbia button up shirts, not sure what the call the fiber but it's very comfortable and cool.



Guy I work with is obsessed with it.

Designs are just a little too...salt life or something.

HUK hands down is the best

Their ICE technology keeps you cool, great designs. Fabrics feel good too

Sounds like a radio promotion...


It kinda is .......We've worked with all of the major brands over the years......Columbia, AFTCO, UA, Hook and Tackle etc.......none of them at least for the 3 of us are as comfortable as HUK......Just an opinion.

I was just messing with you. I know you have a radio show.

I will say that the Huk facemask is the most comfortable I've worn. Can't say anything about their other clothes, mainly because I'm not going to pay $50 for a tshirt that is going to get sunscreen, fish guts, fish blood, fish slime and mud all over it.

Their stuff is too dark. I don't understand clothes made for hot weather being colored that way. Makes me think the designers are not too bright.

Normally I'd agree with you. But I have a dark grey champion shirt that is the coolest one I own. It isn't drifit material but a lightweight blend. It breathes so much better than the drifit ones. They're great for sweating but when I'm just outside and not working in the yard it is perfect. Doesn't cling to you like s drifit will.

I can agree with you and that's been brought up......Their 2017 line will have lighter colors if I remember correctly what they were showing a few weeks ago at ICAST.
