Just watched an episode of "Wicked Tuna", a show about rod and reel, tuna fishermen. One of the regulars had an ASAT hat on. I guess it works on tuna, too. LOL

Never fished for tuna, but I know it’s my favorite for elk and turkey!

Actually, I doubt if the guy wearing it, even had a clue what it was. I still have remnants of my first set of prototype pants and shirt from 1983. Quick story.
First afternoon I wore it, my hunting partner was also field testing it. I saw a deer coming through the brush, got my bow off the hook and got ready to draw. My partner stepped out. I was sold from then on. When Jim Barnhart, developed the first "leafy" suit in ASAT, I felt then, it doesn't get any better. I believe that was in 1985 and I still have four or five sets of it. But it is good for fishing.

Yeah, you've been using it longer than I have. I think I bought my first set from Brigade Quartermasters in 1987. My buddy even tried the dark gray Urban ASAT. I just shook my head and said "no thanks". It wasn't long before he did too! lol!

Yea Brad on the fish hawk wears it, love ASAT. And I agree swampokie, I was going to buy a lot of first lite but they discontinued ASAT , idiots. I like their clothes but not going to wear their camo pattern.
