which is the better glove for Bass fishing?

This is a glove for ice fishing, or winter boating, hunting. I bought it for crabbing in Oregon in December, which it was ideal for that use, but it was too small. It's thick like rubber coated neoprene and the fingers are rather stiff making it tricky to handle small objects. I ordered the XXL and it was for a medium hand, not mine.

I wear these gloves when running a wet saw in winter time. just above freezing water is nasty for the hands! These gloves are completely waterproof and you can't feel the temp of the water. They are not overly resistant to cuts but are fairly durable.

Also take into account the wraps you'll be wearing. I wear 180 inch wraps and even with the XL glove, it's a snug fit.

I brought these for a friend. He says they are the best he has ever had. They are worn everyday through the New Zealand winter. He was after real waterproof gloves. He is a farmer. Sorry this is all I can give you. He would buy these gloves again.

I haven't had the opportunity to give the new ones a try yet so I can't say which is a better choice btwn the two. I will say that the gripper glove is definitely a great glove to incorporate into workouts when your hands get truly sore, no matter what level of experience or strength you may have.

I use them for fishing in the winter. I don't have much rope to pull on because I am trolling and my hands are rough to begin with. They would work if you have to pull on rope. Fast moving rope may burn through the glove, they are thin. The glove comes to the first knuckle.

The Bass outfit has a fly line and flies that are specific to bass species. The Saltwater outfit is geared towards redfish, bonefish, and other light saltwater species.

they are made to withstand the prick of a knife, I would think they could stave off the fish.just be aware of the smell otf the glove

Some type of suede? grips good and I use them while longing too. Excellent glove!

I found them cumbersome. We all bought a pair for a wilderness kayak trip in Alaska last year and the fit for me was ok. The fingers were too long so I had no dexterity at all. Couldn't size down or would have been too tight! Grip is good but if you are fly fishing, no way could you attach a fly or leader.... they did however keep my hands warm like a wet suit would.. if your hands sweat you would want to wear a liner. Hope this helps.

There is no differences in preformance. It is if you like a more cushion feel or a not when you make contact wth the ball. I personally like the thinnest grip to feel immediately how the ball made contact with the bat. I would say Miken, Worth, DeMarini, Louisville Slugger all use a grip similar to Lizard Skins 1.1 mm. Easton uses a thinner cloth-like grip.

I don't fish, but as a SCUBA diver, I have found the gloves pretty flexible and warm. The glued seams need some improvement.

I own several Okumas and have owned others in the past. They are excellent performers. The only ones that have failed me are those that escaped over the side of the boat when I was not paying attention. I use 40s and 50s for trolling and coastal fishing. I use 20s and 30s for throwing lures for bass. I think that the 30 will do the job for you without wearing you out. I use 8 lb. mono on my 30s and have had no issues. Great reel.

No, these are more of a mechanic glove. As a landscaper I find the best glove to protect against thorny plants is a simple mesh weaved glove with the rubber coated palms.

You'll need a glove for your right hand if you are left handed. I have both on my boat so I can accommodate a left handed friend. He loved it while removing a hook from a catfish.Len Kay

Steve..that is a personal preference for you to decide....I am right handed..but I prefer a left-handed real....I do not like to change hands between casting and reeling..I often fish top-water lures, and many times will get a strike as soon as the bait hits the water....just when you are changing hands with a RH reel!!! Also, the rod should be in your Master hand (RT) so you can better react to the fishes fight.....Your left hand can easily master the cranking of the reel, and it is just MY preference!!! If you can borrow a rt and lt handed reel and try them both out and see which you prefer!!! I have shown many of my friends, family, etc....the Left-handed idea, and 90% of them have converted to the LH crank!!! Their popularity can be seen by the huge increase of LH models available now!!!! BUT!!! Again..ITs YOUR decision to make!!! Good Luck....and be sure to leave a few for me!!! Jim

I would go with your glove size. I have L and they are fine for my L/XL hands.

I only have small gloves, so cannot answer your question. I really like mine and I have tried several other brands. These are the best.
