As you just saw there are many options for anglers when it comes to hats, and they are not all created equal. While some hats may look great as a fashion statement the have no place on the water.

Ball caps are a great option, but make sure they are black under the bill and it will help you see more fish. When it comes to sun protection the wide brimmed hats are the best choice as they will provide the most shade.
