Fishing Gloves

Who uses them? What gloves do you use? Or are you using cooling sleeves?

Usually I use some self adhesive bandage on an index finger, but cuts are everywhere else.

Best I’ve found: NRS guide gloves.
Thin durable neoprene with silicone grip palms.
Never get soggy. Easy to wash the fish out of.

I’ll usually sport wrap thumb and forefinger so my braid doesn’t destroy them. But barring that I just make sure it passes through the glove when level winding.

Do you used the gloves to paddle or they help with saving your hands when fishing?

I use Buff fingerless gloves. The uv material keeps the tops of my hands from getting sunburned and the padding on the palms prevents blisters from paddling.

Second the gloves for sunburn. I use those same ones. I am fair skinned so I need the UV long sleeve shirts, UV bathing suit style fishing pants and NRS boots to keep the sun off my feet. Dont like the sunscreens on my hands and face, and a SA straw hat with neck guard.

I like the Pelagic fingerless gloves. They're tough skinned for paddling and less likely to catch sabiki hooks.

I like these as well.

I also have a nice pair of Simms gloves that I use for when the temps drop.

Just looked at the various options out there... Seems like a fingerless paddling glove might do the trick..

Thanks everyone!
