Customer Reviews for Simms BugStopper Hoody

Favorite Fishing Shirt
Without a doubt a favorite shirt in both cold and warm conditions. It works great as a layer on the Innoko in SW AK in 52F and raining, underneath the Simms Guide gear. Also a perfect warm weather shirt to keep the bug out of the ears on the river.
