Enter Fish Monkey, the fishing glove specialist. Recognizing the need for high-performance fishing gloves that fit well and functioned even better, Fish Monkey founder, Tim Mossberg, a hard-core fishing enthusiast himself, has built an extensive line of fishing gloves for all fishermen.
The fact is, every fisherman, from professional to weekend warrior, needs protection from the sun. While fishing shirts and sunglasses that offer such sun protection are the norm, and face guards are catching on, our hands, because they are especially exposed while using a fishing rod, are the last vulnerable part of our bodies we need to protect.
All sun protection, however, is not created equal. Sun protection is a function of two things, the actual weave of the fabric and a fabric treatment that is applied as the garment is being made. The fabrics we use for Fish Monkey gloves feature a much finer weave that better blocks the sun. Yes, this fabric is a bit more expensive but the sun protection is significantly better and well worth the additional cost, especially when one considers that the treatments that others rely on for much of the sun protection in their garments, wears off, especially with washing. Still, we do treat our gloves anyway figuring this treatment can only help. We call this sun protection system LongHaul Life-of-the-Glove Sun Protection which means our gloves will give you the promised sun protection until they are done.
But it’s not just the sun. As any fisherman knows, after a weekend of fishing, our hands can get pretty beat up. Line cuts, fin pricks, tooth gashes, and the general wear and tear experienced while working with gear, can leave you with some telltale marks and annoying pains.
Fish Monkey fishing gloves protect your hands from both sunburn and these everyday cuts and scrapes. But, importantly, they do so without being a hindrance in any way. We call it the Forget About It second-skin fit. Through meticulous ergonomic design and by using state-of-the-art technologies, materials and fabrics, Fish Monkey has made fishing gloves that are so comfortable and fit so well, that you’ll forget you have them on! After all, no protection works if you won’t wear the gloves, right?
Fish Monkey also offers a third big advantage, an incredibly effective non-slip grip. Every Fish Monkey glove features an appropriate high-performance form of non-slip grip. Whether silicone, rubber, synthetic leather or PVC, we call it Griptanite Non-Slip Grip Technology because it really grips!
A good grip means less hand fatigue when grasping a fishing rod for hours on end. It also means a secure grip on railings, anchor lines, dock posts and more. Grip-ability you’ll come to really appreciate.
That’s what Fish Monkey gloves are all about. We are so certain that you will love any pair of Fish Monkey gloves for the fit and function they provide that we guarantee them.

Thumb 👍
Comfortable. Look great and keep my hands from getting sunburnt!
I never thought that I would find gloves to be part of my fishing experience. However, fish monkey changed all that. As my hands get older, I want to protect them as much as I can from the sun, but I also am aware that hooks and fish can cause puncture wounds, and fatigue from gripping a rod can become a factor. Fish Monkey addresses all of these concerns.
Very well made, comfortable and don’t fall down. Not hot and nice support. I wear them daily in no show with deck shoes fishing. I use the mini crew with deck boots. Best socks I have found!
I used them on my uncle's boat and had to have a pair for myself. They fit so nice that it doesn't feel like you're wearing gloves.
Great fitting with no monkey business !

Great glove for light wiring duties with white marlin and sailfish, as well as a great glove for face grabbing tarpon! Love these gloves!
I use the fish monkey freestyle because I want full finger coverage. I do most of my fishing in the fall to winter. Most days it alone will do the job. When it gets below freezing I wear a surgical glove under them. When it gets to single digits or less I put a hand warmer in the palm as well.
Summer time I usually canoe race in the MR340. 340 miles on the Missouri River between KC and St. Louis in just over 80hrs maximum. That race will literally eat your hands off you, I see wrecked hands every year. I wear my Fish Monkey Free styles. Again I want full finger coverage. I have 4 pair put on a fresh pair everytime one gets too wet. Have yet to get a blister with them. Outstanding gloves for more than just fishing.
