Flap,

My family owned the oldest concession license in the State for many many years. I sold baloons (Peanuts, Popcorn, Ice Cream and a cold drink) at the entrance gate to the Boston Public Gardens for twenty years. Baloon string put nasty nasty line cuts on most of my fingers. I have been used to opening those old wounds throughout the fishing season and they get worse year after year. The amount of scar tissue I have in these areas and the pain that results from cutting open a twenty year old scar has at times brought me to tears. Fast forward to last year on MV and I got my scare when they thought I might have that flesh eating fish disease. I started wearing the Aquaskinz gloves. I realized a few weeks ago that my hands were not the mess they have been and it is because of the gloves. Yes I am invovolved with the company but I am dead serious that constant use of these gloves has made my fishing far more comfortable. As stated above, below 40 degrees and wet they do make your hands more cold butif they are dry, no problem in the cold weather. I love this product and now that I past 40 I am not as willing to be miserable when fishing.

Oh yeah, I am catching doo doo and if you want some company....just drop me a line (:>)
