Neil,

Do you stock Fisherman gloves?

If so, could you please post some info?

We did some time ago, but the problems with the lack supply from Fisherman made me throw the towel in.

I notice that the the gloves in the pics at the start of the thread have 'smooth' finger tips - i was looking at gloves a while ago and was put off the owner and saltiga's due to the re-inforced finger tips. For mine, i thought that they'd be a problem in catching line while casting. I opted for some bluefever 3/4 gloves instead so that it's easier to tie knots and change lures by having the finger tips free. The glove is reinforced with kevlar between thumb and forefinger - definately no more scute cuts for me. nice price too.

MikeOsborn:
any reason why motorcross gloves cannot be used.

I have only used some fox gloves once but after a kingie jigging trip recently where I got over 15 fish my hands are full of little braid cuts and my left thumb now has no fingerprint left... :(

Cam where do you get this stuff in nz? ???

Greg Burt:
I think Cams already headed up to The King of Coromandel comp. :-\
 The gloves he uses are the Smith Camo he bought from Duncan at Fishhead in Aus last year while on a tackle shop crawl , he would know about mountain biking and skate boarding gear from his 'Xtreme' youth days, and from collecting stickers, 'loves them stickers' ::).

MikeOsborn:
dont we all ;D

I hope he packed his wet weather gear and woolen hat for the kings of coro tournament cause it will be cold!!!!! at least it is not snowing this year.... ;D
