I have been wearing long sleeved white or light colored shirts for years. I have at least a dozen of them that are just for fishing.  Some are heavy and some or very thin or linen, depending how warm it is in Minnesota when I go fishing. When I went out on March 28th, the day out after the official Ice Out on Minnetonka the high was 65 degrees. I pick most of them up at garage sales, thrift stores, Salvation Army or Goodwill, and never spend more than $3 on them. When I get a hook stuck in one, tear on or get one stained, its not painful to throw it away and grab another one.

 

Long sleeve shirt and lots of Bass

 

Looks like you are planning ahead for a couple drinks at the bar right after.

Very light, long-sleeved hoodie....I wear it with the hood up in over 100 degree weather and it is still quite comfortable.

I was also in search of something, but when I stopped into a TJ Maxx/Marshall's store I scored an Under Armour Ridge Reaper Ninja hoodie for $24.99.  It's pretty awesome and has the buff integrated into the shirt, and also includes a handy zipped pocket on the back side of the shirt.  I think they normally retail for $99.

I hate using sunscreen, so I wear Columbia PFG hoodies. They are a little pricey, but you can find them on sale from time-to-time for $30 or so. The non-hooded ones can be had for even less, but I prefer the hood. That with a baseball cap and a UV Buff, and I'm pretty well covered (no pun intended).

I wear the same style but it's the BPS brand (World Wide Sportsmam)

It's not a choice between long-sleeves and sunscreen,

it a choice between reliable protection and unreliable protection.

 

Sunscreen is only effective for a given period of time,

and that duration can be sharply reduced by contact with the arms and sweating.

Wearing long sleeves is far less inconveniencing than melanoma.

Columbia Men's Tamiami II are the best fishing shirts I've ever used and some of the most comfortable pieces of clothing in my closet. They'll run in the $25-30 range for some of the colors, and the prices often change.
