Our Review

It is not often that you find an ice fishing jacket that can be worn in three out of the four seasons, but thanks to the removable tricot lining you can easily wear the Striker Ice Predator in almost any weather. The comfortable lining will keep you warm during the cold and windy winter months, and when the temperature starts to rise it can simply be removed. The outer shell is designed to be breathable so you can stay warm without overheating.

The durable synthetic material is designed to withstand the rigors of ice fishing, and this is one of the many reasons this jacket is worth the slightly higher price. The seams are 100 percent tapered to ensure that wind and water doesn’t get inside, and you also have the advantage of the soft removeable lining. For added protection from the cold the material has the benefit of the 360 degree reflective feature which helps body heat stay inside the jacket so you can continue to work outside comfortably. Since you won’t have to take as many breaks from the cold you won’t have to worry about missing a bite on your line.

This jacket is advertised as the first “3-in-1” jacket designed for ice fishing, which means you can stay warm and comfortable in almost any weather. The outer shell can be worn separately in warmer weather, and when the temperature starts to drop simply re-attach the soft lining to the inside of the jacket. As an added bonus this ice fishing jacket also comes with a convenient flotation feature.

Not only will you stay warm and dry with this ice fishing jacket, it is also designed to be functional. There are literally pockets all over the jacket so you can easily keep essential items conveniently close at hand. The zippered pockets are ideal for holding valuables that you don’t want to lose on the ice, and there are also compartments with velcro closures so you can quickly grab a lure or a pair of pliers.
