Protected from the sun, cold and abrasion.
Protecting yourself from the sun and cold by the water
By the water, your head and hands are the most exposed. In summer, the surface reflects light and increases exposure to ultraviolet rays: a visor or a wide brim protects your face and reduces glare, which helps you to follow a float or spot a fish. In winter, the cold quickly sets in during long waits, so a thick beanie is essential for night sessions. Gloves and finger protectors shield your skin when casting and handling catches.

Caps, hats, and bob: what headgear
The caps Preston, an English brand for match fishing, cover all conditions: the HD, the Ventamesh in breathable mesh for hot weather, and the waterproof version for rain. The caps Korum, Fox Collection Wraps, and K-Up five-panel caps complete the selection, and the Nash cap is available in kid sizes. To also protect the neck and ears, the K-Up Panama woven hat and the Avid Distortion Camo bob, with a camouflage pattern that blends into vegetation, provide the most coverage.
Beanies, gloves, and finger protectors
For winter, the beanie Guru in knit and the snood Korda Kore, which can be worn around the neck or pulled up over the head, keep you warm during nights by the water. The landing gloves Black Cat, from the German brand specialising in catfish, protect your hand when it's inside the fish's mouth, filled with tiny, sharp teeth. The finger protector Avid, made of neoprene, slips over the index finger and absorbs the tension of the line during powerful carp fishing casts. We wash caps and beanies by hand in cold water to keep their shape.

Frequently asked questions
What colour cap should I choose for fishing?
Dark or khaki shades remain discreet against wary fish when sight fishing. A dark under-visor also limits glare in your eyes, which can be tiring during long days.
How do I choose the right size fishing cap?
Most caps adjust at the back with a strap, velcro, or buckle, and fit most adult head sizes. For a child, a dedicated size like the Nash cap prevents the visor from falling over the eyes.
Do I need gloves for fishing in winter?
Thin gloves with finger openings keep your hands warm while allowing the necessary sensitivity to tie knots or bait up. Remove them to handle the fish, so you don’t damage its protective slime.
How can I stop my cap from blowing away by the water?
Make sure to adjust the back strap well and choose a structured model, which has a visor that catches less wind. In strong winds, a cord attached to the cap can prevent it from ending up in the water.
Are landing gloves useful for fish other than catfish?
Yes, they also protect when handling large pike, which have sharp teeth, or when unhooking a lure with treble hooks. Choose a well-fitting pair to maintain a good grip on the fish.
