Quick take
Puncture-resistant fishing gloves with touch-screen capability on the index and thumb.
These BUBBA fishing gloves pair a cut-resistant build with a terry cloth thumb for wiping sweat. The index finger and thumb work with a phone screen, so you can snap a catch photo without pulling them off. A neoprene back, a hook closure and reflective paneling round out the fit, and they suit filleting, gaffing and handling fish on a boat.
Best for
- Handling fish with sharp gill plates or spines
- Gaffing large stripers or saltwater species
- Fishing at night or in low light with cellular devices
Skip if
- You fish warm water and sweat heavily; neoprene retains moisture
- You need maximum dexterity for tying tiny flies
Strengths
- Neoprene construction resists cuts from fins and gill plates
- Touch-screen index and thumb let you photograph fish without removing gloves
- Reflective paneling aids visibility at night and easy retrieval if dropped
Trade-offs
- Neoprene is thicker than cotton and reduces tactile sensitivity
- Winter neoprene is warmer than summer glove in hot conditions
- Terry cloth thumb wipe absorbs water and can stay wet between uses
Fishing fit
- Water
- Freshwater
