Ice Fishing Outfits - 4 Tips To Keep Yourself Warm And Protected
rm instead of putting on a single bulky bit of clothing. The layers will help to insulate the heat within and keep you warmer. The layer closest to you will be to keep the body dry, the next one is to withhold the heat and is like insulation and the next one is to resist the outside elements like the moisture and the wind. The different layers of fishing gear for ice fishing is essential to prevent the body temperature from plunging too low and causing hypothermia which could be dangerous. This could set in because of the long hours spent on icy locations.
No doubt you will have a tent or shanty for protection, but never the less it is better to go fully prepared just in case there is a blizzard or any such emergency and you cannot get back to the vehicle or the shore.
Ice fishing gear which is an absolute must:
1. Under layer that is moisture wicking – you can get the moisture wicking gear from any sports store which sells them for wearing after a work out at the gym and are just as suitable for wearing when you are out ice fishing too. The fabric which is polypropylene in fact draws the dampness away from the skin, and prevents dampness which is often there with cotton clothes. If your skin gets damp you will feel much more cold and uncomfortable and there are chances of falling ill too.
2. The insulating layer – many of the older fabrics work well as an insulating layer as part of your ice fishing gear. You could use fleece, wool or down for this heat holding layer. However, if you use fleece or wool you would need something with a blend of nylon to protect you from the moisture and wind that could get in through these fabrics. The modern micro fiber is very popular as it is both warm and lightweight, and water resistant above all.
3. The layer to protect you from wind and water – you could use leather or nylon as the outer shell for preventing the moisture or the wind from getting to you. Nylon is also very light and easy to carry with you and you could take along an extra piece too if required, as an emergency gear. These nylon windbreakers easily fold into a pouch and are easy to pack and carry along with you.
4. Protection for you feet – you should opt for boots that are rubberized and water proof and have a felt liner which you could remove. This along with socks that are moisture wicking are a great protection against the moisture and also keeps your feet warm. You could have an extra pair of these felt liners in case your feet get too moist.
You could also carry along with you scarves, goggles, woolen hats with ear miffs and face-masks to keep your head warm and dry. For your hands to be kept warm you should have gloves, mitts, gloves and hand warmer packets which are a must for your gear when you are fishing in the ice.
