Spring is here, it's time to prepare for anything Mother Nature has in store, and often spring showers are a part of the early-season fishing forecast. Whether an avid angler or a weekend warrior, every individual on the water must have proper rain gear for dreary days or protection from spray from the boat.

At Huk, we understand those rough and windy days can make for some of the best fishing days. With a selection from the Tournament Jacket and bibs to the Grand Banks foul weather jacket and bibs, there's something to fit every wet weather situation on the water.

Made by anglers for anglers, the Huk Tournament Jacket design will perform at the highest level. This jacket is the ultimate in foul weather gear, designed to be wind and waterproof. It features waterproof breathable construction technology with fully tapered seams to ensure complete protection from wetness and wind chill while fishing in any weather condition. The jacket also includes adjustable cuffs and waist drawcord that helps keep out wind drafts. The four-way stretch construction ensures a full range of motion while fishing, while the lightweight construction won't weigh you down when casting all day long.

Built with maximum wind and waterproof protection, the Huk Tournament Bib will withstand the most challenging days on the water. They feature elastic adjustable shoulder straps, an adjustable waist, front cargo pockets, plier pockets, adjustable leg cuffs, and waterproof leg zippers. The reinforced seat and knees ensure a long-lasting garment, while mid-leg zippers help with easy on and off. Carefully crafted for optimal performance and protection, the Tournament Bib design will be a go-to to take along for any spring fishing day ahead.

Also designed for all that nature can dish out, Huk created the Grand Banks Rain Jacket. Thanks to its fully tapered seams, storm flap zipper, zippered hand pockets, and adjustable hood, the Grand Banks Jacket offers excellent protection from wind and rain. With a 20k/15k rating for wind and waterproof protection, this jacket will keep you dry even in the harshest conditions.

Lastly, the Huk Grand Banks Bibs are worthy of being named after a place legendary for fog, gales, and storms. Designed to cut the harsh wind and keep anglers dry, the Grand Banks Bibs are perfect for tackling the elements. The waterproof construction and breathable fabric ensure all-day comfort. A zippered chest pocket is ideal for storing small items such as lures or tools, while two side cargo pockets provide plenty of room for more oversized items like pliers or bait containers. The Grand Banks Bibs work to prevent foul weather from ruining a dreary but incredible fishing day!
