The mouth guards with the “teeth” depicted on them have been in use for a few years now, and are perfectly legal. But I can’t tell what that is above the mouth guard in the nose area. If it’s some sort of face paint, that is illegal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Impartial_Observer Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 My guess is this is one of the face shields that are all the rage in fishing right now. I’m don’t see an issue, but there are some out there designs. https://safishing.com/shop/buy-1-get-4-faceshields-fb5/?gclid=Cj0KCQjw0brtBRDOARIsANMDykYOZLgTYaELf4NgHbGGXwEHC0K2BDObFkj2UTwrA8LWYzUcBc0r3a8aAsBUEALw_wcB&ef_id=W9e-xwAAAMdg-Izn:20191022111545:s#configuration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Impartial_Observer Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 (edited) I believe this is in fact the face shield shown in the picture. I mean it's WSU, what did you expect? He has a hand warmer, this is a fleece lined shield, it makes sense. https://safishing.com/shop/clown-face-face-shield/ Edited October 22, 2019 by Impartial_Observer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His breakdown of weddings is SPOT ON! I will admit to owning a couple of these things, they do help with sight fishing, but I have to be far away from any other human before I'll wear it. And mine are just solid colors. You really have to wear a hat with them, and they're not the most comfortable thing when it's hot. Plus I HATE wearing hats.

0 Coach Nowlin Posted October 22, 2019 Author Share Posted October 22, 2019 so the answer is yes, all good then. Thanks Didn't know since you could not see the mouthguard while wearing these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Irishman Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 We had a kid a few years ago wearing one that was flagged for improper equipment. The white hat told our coach he could not see if the kid had a mouthpiece in or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose he could have asked the kid to show him a mouth guard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally speaking any equipment not listed as legal or optional could be considered illegal. If crazy eye black is not allowed then I think this should probably not be allowed. A plain version would be different if it's extremely cold and you wear it to help keep warm. But I think allowing this version could open a huge can of worms. If ti's not illegal it should be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
