Spring Forward with Fish Monkey

Spring Forward with Fish Monkey

With the spring fishing season in the process of springing across the US, the sportsman’s thoughts turn to, what else? Fishing! Time to dust off the gear, spool up the reels and get set for some great days on the water with your family and friends. 

 

That’s when you glance in the hallway mirror and realize that your body probably hasn’t been exposed to direct sunlight for the past few months while you’ve been in winter hibernation mode. Better cover up that pasty flesh, you think. Long sleeve sun protection shirt. Check. Favorite fishing hat—the one with the funny slogan that makes your wife laugh. Got it. But wait, what about your hands? Many an angler has hit the water on those first sunny days of spring to find that the backs of their hands sizzle like frying bacon, and melanomas and brown sun spots pop up like toadstools after a spring rain. Better grab some gloves too, keep your dermatologist off your back.

 

That’s where Fish Monkey comes in. It’s the only brand of fishing glove that’s designed right from the start from an angler’s point of view. It starts with ultra-lightweight material that’s not only UPF 50-plus sun protection rated (the industry’s highest, by the way) but also quick drying. The fit is like a second skin, and so comfortable, you’ll forget you’re even wearing gloves after about five minutes. The palms have additional grip that works just as well when it’s wet as it does dry, with a bit of padding in all the right places. Comfort goes way up, hand fatigue goes way down, even when you’re making hundreds of casts throughout the day.

 

Just as golfers wear gloves when swinging the clubs through 18 holes, anglers can have the same kind of protection for their hands as well, without the need for greasy, gloopy sunscreens. A good pair of fishing gloves will also protect your hands from all those annoying little nicks, scrapes and cuts you get from fins, gill plates, hooks and braided line.

 

Fish Monkey has five styles of sun protection gloves, including the best-selling Stubby, the Half Finger Guide Glove, the Pro 365 Glove, the Freestyle, (which you can customize by removing the fingertips without having the glove fray and split) and the Full Finger Guide Glove. Choose your level of coverage and protection and get set for some incredible days on the water this season with Fish Monkey.
