The best fishing hoodies

The Tackling Minds Ultra Premium Fishing Hoodie not only looks great and is really comfortable to wear, but 100% of all the sales revenue goes directly to the Tackling Minds Charity. 

This is a great cause set up by Dave Lyons in 2020, with the goal of getting people from all walks of life interested in fishing. Whether they struggle with mental health, social deprivation, addictions, disabilities, families or long-term health, Tackling Minds aims to introduce them to the peace that fishing can bring.

The hoodie gives you the option between a fluorescent logo or a camo logo for those who aren’t fond of brighter apparel when fishing. The hoodies are fantastic quality and you won’t be disappointed with the purchase, whilst knowing you’re helping those who are struggling be introduced to the amazing sport that is angling!

If you’re looking to keep warm this winter, the Matrix Sherpa Winter Hoodie is designed for you. The hoodie has incorporated a 100% polyester, thermal sherpa lining, which offers outstanding heat retention to ensure you stay warm and comfortable even on the coldest of days by the bank. The lining is lovely and soft, and is less irritating to the skin, making it great to go on as your first layer after a t-shirt and as it isn’t bulky, a coat can be worn over the top if necessary.

The hoodie itself features a very minimal look which will appeal to anglers outside the match fishing fraternity, with lime green toggles and zippers adding a flash of colour, which we really like. The zipped pockets are also lined with the sherpa material to help keep your hands warm and combined with the elasticated cuffs they stop the chance of any draughts penetrating the garment.

There is a deep, zipped front chest pocket, which is perfect for storing all your valuables or items of tackle in. It is also really handy and ideally located when you have chest waders on, as you can easily access your belongings with minimal fuss, meaning no more rooting around trying to find you trouser pockets. 

The hoodie is made from high-quality cotton and polyester to provide both comfort and warmth, whilst also remaining robust enough to stand up to the rigours of angling in all weathers. Internally there is a brushed fleece fabric to provide great insulation and keep you enthusiastic in the coldest weather.

As the name suggests, the Nash ZT Snood Camo Hoodie combines a well-fitting hooded top with a snood to give you the ultimate winter warming clothing.

Combine that with the thick hood and you have a very warm hoodie indeed. 

The snood is adjustable via drawstrings, as is the hood to allow the user to ensure no cold air can infiltrate the hoodie, keeping you as warm as possible, even on the most bitter days.

The Preston Celcius Zip Hoodie is the newest addition to the long standing and very popular Celcius range, renowned in the match fishing community for keeping anglers warm even on the days you question your own choices on whether you should be fishing or not. 

Featuring a dual thermal layer, the hoodie has great insulating properties, which allows you to heat up quickly and then retain that heat as long as possible by trapping warm air against your body. Preston have utilised a large YKK zip to ensure even in the harshest conditions you can still easily operate the zip, these same zips are located on the pockets too, great when you’re hands are really cold and you need to get to your valuables.  

As you would expect, both wrists and waistband are elasticated to prevent cold air finding its way into the hoodie, with extra thick draw cords allowing you to adjust the hood should the weather keep getting colder.

The hoodie can be used as the final layer or as a mid-layer when the weather really deteriorates, it is perfect for those longer winter sessions on the bank as its more than soft enough to sleep in, whilst keeping you really warm. It also helps prevent the cold shock if you get a bite in the night and have to leave your sleeping bag. 

Incorporated into the fleece is a double layered hood to maximise heat retention in your head, with the high neckline and storm flaps eliminating unnecessary heat loss from your neck. The 100% polyester material is renowned for its thermal properties, and you only have to touch the hoodie to realise how comfortable it is.

You will be hard pushed to find a match venue without seeing multiple Guru Red/Black Hoodies on the bankside, such is their popularity amongst anglers. The company has a great reputation for its quality tackle and its clothing is no different, these hoodies have lots of features and they fit as good if not better than any others on the market. 

The hoodies aren’t made for the coldest days but are great for wearing underneath a coat to keep you warm. The cross over front collar helps keep draughts away from your neck and thanks to the soft, plush materials used to manufacture the hoodie, it gives a premium feel to the wearer. 

Another clever feature is the ribbed underarm panels, these help the garment stretch when casting, playing or netting fish to reduce the restrictive feeling some hoodies can give you, especially when match fishing. Integrated thumb holes help keep the sleeves from riding up if you’re frequently moving your arms and the large pocket at the front is great for storage. You can also get the hoodie in Navy and Black if the Red is too much for you.

Available in sizes: M, L, XL, XXL

There aren’t many fishing hoodies on the market that look as good as the KUMU Rising Sun Hoodie, adorning a Japanese inspired Koi graphic to the rear of the hoodie, it is clear to see why it has become a favourite of many anglers across the UK.

The super-soft fabric is amazingly soft and feels incredibly comfortable when you are wearing the hoodie. The fit is also fantastic and almost feels tailor made, it doesn’t feel baggy, nor will it stretch after use.
