Yes, I love them. They beat sunscreen in the eye!

Never fish without a Buff lightweight UV mask anymore. Have several in fact. I'll also be trying out the Columbia Omni-Freeze face masks this summer.
Wish I had been able to use them years ago. Beat the heck out of sunscreen, they aren't uncomfortable, and you'll forget you have it on after a while.

This might be the weirdest, most pointless post ever. I am not against golf, since I cannot but suspect it keeps armies of the unworthy from discovering fishing

Yes, and I make it look gooooood. I sunscreen my nose and forehead because wearing the Buff stagecoach-robbery style causes my sunglasses to fog up and the reflective qualities of water causing my forehead to get sunburned, respectively. I also think I stay cooler once the sun is high.

Buff does what it says. Only drawback for me is aforementioned fogging of sunglasses. Really like it for travel fishing. Cap on while flying, buff in luggage is a lot easier than packing a wide bream sun hat. Oops...wish I were chasing some wide bream today ;-)

I've got a few...my favorite is their merino wool buff. It's super soft and comfortable. Essential for chilly morning boat rides.

Just don't wear it during the spawn. That could get weird, even for you carp-folk.

Always, beats the heck out of sunscreen. They do tend to fog up my costas sometimes though

I find my buff to be a little too tight, do you get different sizes in these things or are different makes better. I got mine from Bass Pro a couple of years ago, they are camo blue.

+1 on the fogging issue. They also seem to blow my hot breath back on my face at times, which is not really preferable in the summer, but maybe it's just me with that problem. haha
