Murrica Posted May 4, 2016 Posted May 4, 2016 The Gloves i wear that are very comfortable are these http://www.aftco.com/solmar-uv-fishing-gloves-2178-prd1.htm. I don't get hooks in them and can wear them all day without feeling hot or like the circulation is cut off to my fingers or hands.
avidone1 Posted May 4, 2016 Posted May 4, 2016 Well I had no idea these things were so popular. Nor did I realize what a passionate bunch you are. So I've heard the arguments and I gotta tell ya the only one that convinced me was the "too cold" replies. that I can see. As for the skin cancer argument, sorry but I'm not buying it. Outdoor sports have been popular long before "buffs" came into fashion. anyone with half a brain put on sun block to prevent the sun induced carcinomas. I for one had one skin cancer in the 1980's from bass fishing and learned my lesson. I never went out again without it. No cancers since. Some of y'all make it sound like your doomed to a horrible death if you don't wear a ninja mask. It's a miracle that any of us ol timers are still alive So anyway, thanks for the feedback. I think it's a fad. We'll know for sure in a couple of years. Stay tuned...............

Those of us that choose to adapt to a more convenient (for us) choice in sun protection prefer not to lather up every few hours. We also don't judge and make fun of people that don't wear them. 1

Thanks Those are the new STORMR UV gloves. They come in two different models- One with an open vented palm and the other with a more durable material on the palm and index finger. Check them out! They are cool, fit well, and don't move around and slide down during the day.

So yeah......Anyway..... And yes, anyone with half a brain can put on sunscreen, just like someone with half a brain can choose not to want to be covered face and neck by some greasy liquid. And correct me if I'm wrong but outdoor sports were around before sun screen as well, were they not? So anything that was invented after outdoor sports is a no go? What is so confusing/threatening about a comfortable alternative to sunscreen?
avidone1 Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 I'm sorry guys, I didn't realize y'all were so sensitive. I thought we were rugged outdoorsman types who could do a little "give and take" without getting our panties in a bunch. If I said anything that was over the line I would appreciate it if a mod would tell me so. We also don't judge and make fun of people that don't wear them. I don't see how I did this What is so confusing/threatening about a comfortable alternative to sunscreen? I don't feel threatened, I just think it's a fad Don't feed the troll. Troll? really? In my experience with internet forums my comments were mild kidding. I know were not all grown men here at bassresource but c'mon now.....I hear rougher talk at my wife's yoga class I'm sending this to the mods..........I need to know if I'm out of line here or if some of you are just being a little too sensitive.
BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted May 5, 2016 BassResource.com Administrator Posted May 5, 2016 Ya'll just need to chill lakeside with an adult beverage of choice, wave lapping at the shoreline, cool breeze coming off the water, thumbs all tore up from a great day of fishing.... and scene.... 5
