The Grundens Transmit X Jacket is a waterproof and breathable shell jacket designed for active fishing and especially for boat fishing. It is made for long fishing days in which cold mornings, fast runs, rain, wind and spray can follow one another within the same day. In Finland this kind of use means, in practice, lure fishing for pike, zander and perch on lakes and along the coast, as well as other active boat fishing where the garment has to protect against the weather while still letting the angler move freely. Transmit X offers a 30K / 15K water column and breathability. The high water column protects against heavy rain and the spray that comes over in a boat, while the breathable construction helps move body moisture outwards during active fishing. This combination is important on long days where you sit in the boat one moment and cast, net a fish or move quickly across the deck the next. The jacket is made of nylon and the cut is designed specifically with the mobility that fishing demands in mind. The arms and upper body can work without unnecessary stiffness, so casting and handling fish stay natural even with mid layers underneath. Neoprene cuffs at the sleeve ends seal the wrists and help prevent water from getting into the sleeves. The feature is practical when fishing in the rain, working with a wet rod or handling fish over the side of the boat. The storm flap over the front zip, in turn, protects against driving rain and wind chill when running, exactly where water would otherwise easily try to get in through the zip. The hood adjustment cords are routed inside the construction. This solution reduces the cords hanging on the outside that could catch on line, rod guides or other equipment in the boat. The hood can be adjusted to the wearer so that it protects the face and head without unnecessarily restricting visibility. Three fleece-lined zipped hand-warmer pockets add comfort in cool weather and at the same time offer practical storage for small accessories. The pockets are easy to use even when the fishing day involves a lot of moving about the boat and from one spot to another. The Transmit X Jacket is a technical shell jacket without built-in insulation. Its warmth can be regulated with base and mid layers, which makes it a versatile option from spring well into the autumn and for colder days too. Together with the Transmit X Bib it forms weather protection designed for fishing on long days on open water.
