Camo Clothing Blog

There are obvious reasons why camouflage apparel is so popular in the hunting sports. From duck blinds to tree stands to open-field strategies, hunters know that concealment is the most important component to a successful hunt. And their wardrobes attest to the fact that camouflage is a key ingredient to being stealthy.

Whether it’s camo clothing or camo vehicles, the sheer volume of camouflage options for hunting is at an all-time high with good reason – concealment is a proven method to increase the success rate of a hunter. However, it’s been a different story for anglers.

Up until now, most fishermen, quite frankly, have looked like walking billboards when out on the water. Bright pastels and neon shades are often the colors of choice. Their clothing, typically comprised of bold, solid colors or white, screams to fish “I’m right here… what you see from underwater is not natural… and I’m coming to prey upon you.” And when your predators come from the sky, as well as underwater, there’s good reason to be concerned with what is happening above the surface. Anglers need camo too.

That’s why the team at Aqua Design have worked for over 13 years, perfecting patterns and functionality of technical fishing apparel. Using actual underwater photos (from the fish’s perspective), the marbled colors blend into the background of whatever the environment calls for – sunny / shallow water (Sky Blue), overcast / rainy (Overcast), forest and woodlands (Willow Green), desert and rocky (Sand), and deep water / ocean (Bahama Blue).

Every fishing shirt, vest, pant, hat, and cap is designed by fishermen for fishermen. Functionality, comfort and sun protection are foremost considerations designed into each and every product.

Finally, anglers have an option when it comes to being stealthy on the water.
