Happy Monday! Thanks for another perfect wake up Ben. And color is another thing: camo on small streams, white to make bonefish schools scatter and blaze orange in the fall.
If you're not pounding monsters in a flat brim while slinging six inch meat for smalljaws, are you really fishing?

Hey Ben, here in Canada a Beanie is a Touque pronounced TWO not TOE. BTW. I've just been upgrading my fishing hat from a crusty old sweaty Dad hat to a flatter brim/bill hat. Wife doesn't like it. Which make me like even more.
Love it. Freaking hilarious. Love your style
Loved the stream access coalition hat. 👍
Hahahaha, I was crying at this one. The athlete sleeping on the ground made my drink come out of my nose. I was very impressed that you tried to use the word toque (as beanies are known in Canada), but you pronounced it wrong. It's "too-k" not "tow-k", "too" with a hard k sound at the end. It's a dumb french word, so you don't lose any cool points. I'm just impressed that you brought it up at all! I guess I'm old too cause my "brim" is always curved, flat brims give me the heebie - jeebies! Lol!
Amazing video as always, Ben!
Very informative, Thank you :)
2:52 slappin’ a Brian at MRO quote in there lol love it
Long bill totally reminded me of National Lampoons movies. Clark is so goofy and funny at the same time. I think you put a pic of him in there but I'm not sure.
I'm agree with that one about the knit hat covering your ears. It's a must

I wear the goofy long bill. It works good and it's also a lucky hat. I catch 43.3% more fish in my long billed goofy hat.
Your vids are the best! So friggen funny! OMG!

I wear a hat. But, as evidenced by me paying some dollars to fish "private waters" and coming up pretty much empty (I caught one fish over the course of 8 hours), I can attest that I SUCK AT FLY FISHING! But thanks to you and the 4.5 inch trout I did catch and release (God I hope Freda lived), I shall not surrender. I will fish again. But I will only pay for gas and a few flies. Getting skunked for free is FREEDOM!
Didnt think I would learn what I learned today. A hat spoiler will keep me in the boat. :D I will pass on the info ahaha.
Good morning Ben☕️ I enjoy watching you fish with everyone. But I also enjoy when you do these, I just enjoy your options and rants. Take care and stay huge👍

I prefer these. Also liked his fly tying videos. I always thought the Gurgler was stupid but Ben tied one so I thought I would give it a try. It tears them up. It is now one of my go to patterns.
Dude, great video as ...nuff said.
Nice to see USAC!!! I'm a wide brim guy!!!
Amazing video! Your channel seems really cool!! Just subbed too!👍
OG AT hat. I don’t even have one anymore I miss that style
My hats off to you! BTW my Shelta hat gives me a headache.
Absolutely hilarious! I kept waiting for you to address two more scenarios though. Please do a follow-up video and include cowboy (or western) hats. Another one I can't wait for you to address is reminding everyone that with ball caps....the bill goes in the FRONT!......unless you're under 10 years old. :) Folks, this guy is a riot. Check out all his other videos on every topic imaginable.
Happy huge day everyone
Hey Huge, What do I do with my old flies? For example, I have a yellow foam grasshopper that is chewed up and missing all the legs on the right side. It still caught fish on Sunday but since I tied some more I am unlikely to use it again. Do I chuck it? Repurpose the hook (yes I am cheap). Squirrel it away just in case? Try to tie new legs on? PS. I suck at fly fishing.
@HugeFlyFisherman
Жыл бұрын
I try to give that stuff away if it’s not too beat up. Taking a razor blade to it and re-using the hook is a viable option too.
Preach
If I bought a flat Brim big enough to swallow my head, that would be an improvement….. and the extra casting distance would be handy 🍺
I feel attacked...... from Florida Another great video Ben!
There is a sub-species of the long bill that has a mullet style flap in the back that makes you look like Jar-Jar Binks from Star Wars. They are highly effective at blocking sun, but at the cost of your dignity.
I note that you dodged the “trucker hat” mesh ball cap sub species altogether. Granted I think they suck, but I’m old with thinning hair and looking to avoid the screen door sunburn scenario.
I was dying after the Sombrero for fishing in Mexico 😂😂😂
You're a rockstar.
Huge!!
"Bimini for my head" 🤣
Beanie over hat over hood was the ultimate flex.
Lucky hat 100%! I was given one from a US friend in 2002 and still wear it on every fishing trip. Still going strong after 20 years

JB, I fish for Northern pike, perch and occasionally zander in Belgium and The Netherlands. Hence the ‘lucky hat’ donated to me by Beaver Slivinski from the US is very dear to me. He sent me a new one this year, can’t for the life of me remember the ‘lucky hat’ ever looked that awesome! It is so tathered by sun and rain that you couldn’t say one looked like the other 20 years ago 😁

Hats - also useful for deflecting flies, split shot, etc., being propelled at warp speed by errant casts. Don't leave home without one.
No shoutouts to Richard the Dentist from Houston and his cowboy hat?
Very funny.
Lotta jumpscares in this video.
Shyanne orvis reference 😂
My solar powered propeller beanie keeps me cool all day.😁
And remember--When you wear a flat brim you must leave the sticker on the brim and the Store price tag on for everyone to see-HA HA
What about the ball cap but worn backwards? Does that help with casting distance or accuracy?

"for style points so you can fake being outdoorsy on Instragram" - that is pure gold.
What about the classic bucket hat? I wanted to get roasted too
I prefer my tricorne, because I'm extra and stylish.
Can confirm toque in Canadian-speak is pronounced "Tuke." But, NEVER forget that Ben makes the rules. From now on, Canada, toque is now toke. It is the law.

Again positing my million dollar idea of creating a mesh trucker hat that has a rubberized mesh for netting small fish while bluelining
Reaching deep on this one eh.
If you're fishing in florida, the bug net goes over the hat...or...well...you'll find out...
Hey Kevin
My current favorite hat is my Abouttrout hat. I also like to collect flyshop hats to show support, unless they're dicks. As if they created flyfishing. Definately do the stockin hat in the cold months
The lucky hats are the ones you hide from your wife. Otherwise, they “disappear” when you go out and you have to make do with the “acceptable” replacements she gets for you! 😂😂
What about straw cowboy hats? Or Red Green style bucket hats? Also the bill sticks out in front (baseball caps), a brim circumnavigates your noggin.
Hood over hat
I choose the spoiler one, to avoid baked away ears with skin cancer later..
How you gonna put this video out and then be out of trucker hats the next day? Also, OD green or FDE hats would be great, just sayin
To help you stay in the boat
My wife says I have too many hats so I will have ti buy more
Wide brim here! Only mine is Blaze Orange. Tired of the turkey hunters over shooting me. And you thought overlining was a pain! Let me know if you want the picture. Stay Huge!
🤣🤣👍🏼
Could you repeat that I was hooking up my jet ski.

Hats are helpful in not getting wildly cast flies stuck in your scalp. Not that it ever happens
Spoiler 😂😂
A fishing hat video that didn’t talk about fishing/bucket hats - otherwise funny stuff!
You’re an ear tucker!? ear tuckers should be in the same tier as “tight lines” and fishstagramming buttery browns. With all that hair I never noticed. I guess I learn something new every time I watch. Still not tucking my ears though.
Hat under hood, hood goes over hat all the way over the bill of the hat. The wind from the flats boat will hold it there. Any other way and you’re a goof.
Personally I believe Shyanne Orvis is an elite level angler, also I believe her new born needs glasses and a hat while being on her chest in the middle of the river.
Listen to your wife and wear sunblock. Maybe it's a pain now but believe me having Moh's procedures to remove skin cancers from your face and neck when you are in you 60's or 70's is far, far worse
@pgc2931

I second the sunscreen recommendation. The sun's rays bounce off the water onto your face, juking your hat. I now wear both. Better late than never. My Moh's procedure hole was big enough to fit a couple old size silver dollars in. I had a handy temple coin purse until the hole healed in. I could have had the procedure done earlier in my 50's than I did, but that would have required going to a dermatologist earlier too. A buddy (also mid 50's) had to have his whole face skinned and replaced with his own butt skin. Ouch.

Yep. I wear a wide brimmed hat so I don't have to put sunscreen on the tops of my ears, but it does go on my face and neck. Everything else is covered up. Hands too. I've had too many sunburned hand days so they get sunscreen as well.
