Gloves - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Gloves are a constant for me. Look for ones with no fingertips, made of some sort of spf 50 fabric, with synthetic leather palm reinforcement. They aren't stiff, dry quickly, protect your fingers and palms as well as the backs of your hands. They're great in Baja!
In cold weather (freshwater bass, trout, salmon) I go with fingerless neoprene gloves.
I dislike sunscreen on my fingers because I believe (superstition?) fish have a highly developed sense of smell and I haven't found any fishy sunscreen. :-)
