Mayfly Graphic Hoodie Fly Fishing Apparel

Mayflies make up the bulk of the diets of our trout in Northern Idaho. BWO's begin hatching as soon as the winter weather starts to recede. March browns follow and really get the fish looking up in the April timeframe. Then green drakes, grey drake, and tan drakes make appearances throughout the summer months. Those with more entomological knowledge than me have finer distinctions than me, but the hatches are plentiful and the local trout find mayflies to be irresistible.

We welcome the new mayfly graphic fishing hoodie featuring art by Dun & Dun. James Dunlap does naturalist illustrations of the multiple life stages of many trout staples. Ryan Dunmeyer provides the entomological expertise to James with exhaustive effort in collecting and photographing every development stage. We took a collection of the Dun & Dun mayfly images for our newest offering. You'll find nymph, dun and spinner stages of Blue-Winged Olives, Green Drakes, Sulfurs, Slate Drakes, and March Browns. Test your bug knowledge while protecting yourself from thee sun's harmful rays during your next fly fishing excursion.

Sizing Hints from Doug:

Our SunPro Hoodies are made to be worn loose to promote airflow through the garment and allow sun protection in warmer temps. As such, they grade out bigger with longer arms and torsos than many. I have comfortably worn these hoodies in temperatures up to 95 degrees in Florida and Brazil. At 5'11" and 175 lbs.(ish) I wear a size LG. It is generous on me. A loose fit works well for our Fincognito and Oceancognito lines or when wearing as hiking clothing.

I have noticed that those wishing to wear the hoodies as a base layer (especially for skiing in our Mountaincognito line) generally buy one size smaller. Keep in mind the high Spandex content allows for a good amount of stretch.
