OG Ninja Fisher...

Wow...no one else embraces the buff....you should the Texas sun melts years off your face......and sun screen sucks....plus they really do keep you cool...

Were do you get one at

A local fly fishing shop being your first choice then check Academy sports they also stock them.

That's on my short list of things to pick up - pretty much as soon as I remember it when I'm in the store.

Best money I spent this year was a bass pattern buff use it every fishing trip I take now

They make a carp one.....just saying.

Gah, I have like 10 of them. I wear them every time i'm out.

I have 2 at the moment (redfish pattern and a white and black graphic design/tribal pattern kind of thing) that get worn the most. Also have a Columbia Omni-Freeze version.

I'm a ginger, so I have to wear this stuff. I'm usually pretty easy to spot... The guy wearing long pants, long sleeve shirt, buff, and my namesake hat, and sometimes even gloves. Plus I put on SPF 100 just for good measure.

I hear ya about the sunscreen sucking but I rate it right up there with bug spray! I hate to use either but I don't like to cover up my face either.. I guess I'll need to get over all that if I want to keep my good looks into my old age.. may be too late already Do you feel like a bandit when wearing that mask?

I just bought the "urban camouflage - shark/fish" pattern a couple of weeks ago... thought it was urban camoflage til I got it home and laid it out and saw that the different colors were different shapes of fish. Cool! I wear it on every trip now, mainly to protect my neck and that little patch behind both ears that gets sunburned and HURTS, but it will be just as awesome in the winter to keep the wind/cold off my nose and ears.

The fly fishing department in Bass Pro carry them. I like them but they do itch a little.

Wash them once and you are good. Spent a week at falcon wearing one and never got burned. THey are also great when you dunk them in the ice chest and put them back on.

I have to get some gloves next.

They look at you funny when you forget to take it off going into convience store oh they look at me funny anyway nevermind

Creature of the Black Lagoon!!!

Everglades a few weeks ago. Saved my skin!!

Yep I love them, my wife and I have about 10-12 and there are so many ways to wear them that one of us always has one on. I wear it to work everyday, it keeps my hair out of my face and then just pull it down on the sunny days at the lake and it keeps the sun off. Love them!



I love the gloves too by the way, I've been wearing them all year because I got a pair for Christmas. No more sunburned hands.

Im gonna check these out. I told myself
i was gonna stay covered up this year.

yes as well as the gloves, long sleeve shirts, long pants and a big-brim hat. Had my 7th skin cancer removed this year so trying to do better at protecting myself.

I am a HUGE fan of the Magellan gear they sell at academy its cheap and just as good as the really exspensive tech gear that the big names sell. mangrove gloves a buff and quick dry zip off short pants are my friend.

how do i join the Lone Star Carp Brigade, never fished carp sounds fun

well, you have to show up with a member catch a fish, unless your in a 12 step program or your under 21 you will probably have to drink a beer...you must also be able to embrace your inner jackazz.

Most important you can't let you ego get in the way of your fishing and having a good time. We are more about having a good time then about besting the guy fishing by our side its the reason that information tends to flow freely with-in our silly group.

also wearing one of these buff thingies improves your street cred.

sounds good lets do it

I'm a fan of the neck gaiter.

I try to protect myself.I am interested in the gloves as my hands are always exposed.May try the mask also.

every chance I get.

I had my first basal cell carcinoma cut off the top side of my right hand last year.

It was from fishing and working outside since 1972.

I am fine now, but it would have sucked if it would have been on my face.

Sea grass pattern helps me keep from scaring off the crappie.

Just ordered it last night

Wore mine today...

Never get on the water without it!! My lucky shark camo buff!

I tried one this winter but I dip snuff and it made a big mess when I forgot about it and tried to spit.

Looks like the Slee-Stack from land of the lost...

They are comfortable? They don't look like it. I guess I could try one out. Though I usually go without any sunscreen. Big time farmer's tan on me by the start of summer.

I ordered one direct from Buff. Just used it in a tournament last week and it never bothered me. At 40 I can see the results of not wearing one for years. I'll have it on anytime I'm on the water for and extended amount of time and it's sunny. Still use sunblock though.
