Columbia Bahama II Short-Sleeve Shirt - Men's Vintage Blue, L

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I wore the Columbia Bahama II Short-Sleeve Shirt on a full day float trip in July and genuinely forgot I had it on, which is the best thing I can say about a fishing shirt. The UPF 50+ kept me from torching my shoulders, and the rod-holder loop on the chest became something I didn't know I needed until I couldn't fish without it.""The sun is already high by the time you're rigging up, and it's only going to get hotter. The Columbia Bahama II Short-Sleeve Shirt was built for exactly these hours, the kind where shade is optional and comfort is not. Columbia's Omni-Shade UPF 50+ construction weaves protection right into the fabric, so you're not slathering on sunscreen every hour just to make it to afternoon. The relaxed fit gives your cast room to breathe, and the quick-drying nylon taffeta means a splash from the net or a wade through a riffle doesn't slow you down. Thoughtful details like the lift-top front pockets, the utility loop for pliers, and the rod-holder loop on the chest free up your hands when the fish are actually biting. The collar buttons down when the wind picks up, and the hidden shoulder vents and mesh back lining keep air moving when it doesn't."
