I use Columbia Coolhead fingerless gloves. They have a the little tacky bumps on them to help your grip too. $20 at Academy and they last two seasons

This is the first set of sun protection gloves I have used; I have liked them. Mine are showing wear after two seasons, may be able to get three seasons out of them before they're shot. Simms Solarflex sunglove

Simms Sun gloves are my favorite. They are lighter and thinner than my pair of Fish Monkey gloves so I use them while casting. When drifting for Catfish I switch over to the Fish Monkey gloves.

How do y'all get the fish smell off? I wash mine 2-3 times and they still reek.

I hang the Simms up outside to air dry when I park the boat. Still smells a little by the next weekend if you get up close to your face but it's pretty mild. I don't think I have actually washed them in the two years I've used them.

Now if you are catching that many fish; I want to go too.
Otherwise don't wear the gloves when you dress fish. roflmao

Simms are awesome.

I will also recommend Simms...but I haven't tried many of the others and there is probably a comparable product priced better.

I like Simms Solar flex the best, I have the Simms Guide gloves too. They are good also and actually more expensive because they have leather stitched in the fingers for better grip. But i don't like them as much because they are tougher to put on and take off. As far as the fish smell, comes with the territory. When they dry they actually don't smell like a fish but do smell funny.

I use the Columbia gloves. They are alright. Very thin and nonrestrictive, but not the best grip either.

Tip: put the gloves on in the shower and keep them on while you shampoo. Rinse off and hang to dry overnight. Works great.

Buff brand are good I haven't tried the new angler ones, I use these:

These are for water skiing I think but they hold up very well they have tacky palms, I have had my pair for like 4 years now and tho faded they are fine.

That is actually the exact pair I had. I should probably just buy them again. I have had mine for like 5 or 6 years now.
