What to wear for fly fishing depends on the conditions where you’re casting. Factor in climate, weather, landscape, temperatures, and the water you’re fishing, and then dress accordingly. What you’re going to pack for a Montana fishing trip isn’t the same as what you’d take to Colorado or Wyoming. But a standard fly-fishing outfit includes wading pants or quick-dry shorts, wading boots or amphibious shoes, a moisture-wicking casting shirt or drirelease hoodie, a hat, sunglasses, and your fishing pack or bag. Layer up if you need waders, underwader pants, an insulated vest, and wading jacket for cooler or cold environments. Frigid temperatures require fly-fishing gloves, an insulated beanie, and a heavy waterproof wading jacket on top of your other layers.
We developed the Orvis PRO All-Weather Systems to be the best clothing for fly fishing in any conditions.
Brightly colored fly-fishing clothes stand out far greater than earth tones. Fish can see color, so if your clothes are highly visible, they’ll notice you. Stick with clothing in muted hues to divert unwanted attention.
For fly fishing in winter, remember that layers keep you warm. Start with a moisture-wicking, lightweight base layer, and then add a fleece or fleece-lined mid layer, for both your legs and body. Wear two pairs of socks: one synthetic sock liner and wool-blend or nylon socks over that. Always practice the two-sock system for winter fishing, and seal in warmth for your extremities with insulated convertible gloves and a snug, insulated hat. Heavy-duty breathable waders and a winter-ready wading jacket that’s water- and windproof complete your ‘what to wear for winter fly fishing’ checklist. Never wear anything cotton, not even cotton undershirts or underwear—and especially not cotton socks. Cotton absorbs moisture quickly and then fails to insulate.
We recommend lightweight, UPF 40+ shirts, shorts, or pants for summer fly fishing. If you’re fishing sandy bottoms in warmer waters, try our PRO Approach Shoes instead of wading boots or sandals.
In summer and winter, wear moisture-wicking base layers under your waders. In summer, choose lightweight fishing pants or shorts and a UPF-rated casting shirt or sun hoodie. For winter, select a sturdy base layer and fleece or fleece-lined midlayer to wear under your waders. Knowing what to wear for winter fly fishing prepares you to face critically cold conditions.
