Best Fishing Hats & Accessories

Outdoor Research Sun Bucket Hat

Offered in 7 colors and 4 sizes, there’s a bucket hat to suit everyone. With a 2.5-inch brim-width, we liked this hat better in the wind than most. It protects you from the sun without turning into a sail. Synthetic materials mean this hat dries quickly after the sprinkles pass, and weighing in at 2.3 ounces means the hat packs like a dream for those looking to save weight when packing gear.

Arcade Futureweave Belt

Arcade’s Futureweave belt is made of recycled materials that offer 4-way stretch, is light weight, and is machine washable and dryable. It’s 1.5” wide, up to 40” long allowing for a customizable fit, and the low-profile buckle is almost unnoticeable when you’re wearing it. The high-density plastic buckle is durable and light weight, and you can walk through airport security with it on. Stretch belts like this are very comfortable.

Our tester loves Fishe Wear hats the most. This 5-panel, adjustable-fit hat represents an angler’s love for fishing. This really good-looking hat is one of the more unisex designs by Fishe Wear. Our tester’s only complaint is that her boyfriend commandeered it.
