FISH MONKEY IS THE INDUSTRY’S FIRST AND LEADING LINE OF PERFORMANCE FISHING GLOVES DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR CAPTAINS, DECKHANDS, PROFESSIONAL GUIDES, RECREATIONAL ANGLERS AND EVEN THOSE WHO CLEAN FISH AND PERFORM MAINTENANCE DUTIES.
FISH MONKEY IS THE FISHING GLOVE SPECIALIST
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.
SUN PROTECTION THAT IS UNMATCHED
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.
PROTECTION FROM CUTS AND ABRASIONS WITH A FIT YOU’LL FORGET
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 gloves are a tool of the trade when handling big fish!

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.

The System: Hands Head & Feet
The Hands, Head & Feet System
From icy blinds to sun-scorched flats, your body takes the brunt of every outdoor pursuit. That’s why Fish Monkey and Hunt Monkey created the Hands, Head & Feet System—a complete gear solution built to protect your most vital zones and elevate your performance in any condition.
In cold weather, our insulated gloves, thermal headgear, and heavyweight socks work together to lock in warmth, block wind, and keep you dry. Each piece is engineered for maximum comfort and durability on its own—but when worn together, they form a unified shield against the elements, helping you stay focused longer and move with confidence.
When the heat rises, our lightweight Guide Series steps in. Sun protection gloves guard your hands from UV rays while maintaining grip and dexterity. Breathable face guards offer cooling airflow and coverage without restriction. Lightweight socks wick moisture and reduce fatigue, keeping your feet cool and blister-free. It’s a warm-weather system designed to help you stay sharp, agile, and protected from sunrise to sunset.
Whether you're chasing ducks in December or redfish in July, our gear works as a system—layered, versatile, and built to perform. Hands. Head. Feet. One mission: keep you comfortable, protected, and at your best.
One system. All conditions. Maximum performance.
Option 1: Lightweight System: Spring/Summer Total Body Fishing Protection
Fish Longer. Focus Harder. Perform Better.
If you're serious about catching fish, you need gear that protects your Hands, Head, and Feet — the three zones that drive your performance. When any one of them is compromised, your edge disappears.
- Sore feet? You’re less likely to chase that final bite.
- Sunburned face? Your focus drifts from precision casting.
- Beat-up hands? You’re slower to set the hook and land the fish.
That’s Why We Built The System.
The System is our integrated approach to performance fishing gear — combining gloves, headwear, and socks engineered to keep you sharp, comfortable, and locked in from first cast to final strike.
Built for Serious Anglers
- Fish Monkey Gloves: Protect against cuts, fatigue, and UV damage while enhancing grip and dexterity.

Why It Works
Each product is powerful on its own. But together, they form a shield of comfort and protection that helps you fish longer, focus harder, and perform at your peak.
