Face mask help....

I don't think I have ever seen a post regarding these, but I am hunting advice/feedback on a facemask/head covering to wear while fishing. This isn't due to the corona virus, or anything of that sort. This past year, I had to have some procedures done to remove some cancerous spots....almost pre-melanoma stuff. That being said, I've seen some fisherman that wear a thing baclava type of covering on their head while bass fishing, and am looking into those. Anyone have experience with them? Best place to buy something?
I don't want something that I am just going to sweat through. The lightest material possible.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!! I love my family too much to not take this seriously!

I wear a buff with a baseball cap -- like this:

The ones online that have all the cool fish patterns and show being worn in several different ways are super light and not uncomfortable after a short while. I wear a fairly wide rimmed hat with the mask, good protection. Attachment 373135

I would think you could probably make one pretty easy as well.

Bass Pro, Cabela's and Amazon all sell buffs. I got mine at Bass Pro.

I found one at Academy like Dave posted from Magellan Outdoors. I wear it year round. I assumed it would be hot in the summer but it is actually cooler due to the wicking effect. My neck, temple area and arms used to take a beating from the sun and as I get older I've realized how serious sun damage is. Make sure you get one with an SPF rating of at least 50.

That's what I use .... SA (white) sleeves and (white) face shields, plus Glacier Glove sun gloves.

You can find the SA face shields on special sales ads .... usually buy 1 get 4 free.

SA is what I wear. Alot of different ones to choose from & ways to wear them.
