I have been fishing, and no I don't wear gloves. But I totally would actually.

OK, now your just having fun. Right? Your first wife must have been a saint. It's hard to type this with my gloves on.

Sometimes I wear gloves for no reason.
Just because I can.

that's generally what my dad does when he has guests, sets everything up and hands someone a rod when there's a fish on the line lol

it's a 21' center console so not really enough room to party too much on it, but i'll like to take it out with some friends and anchor near la guardia... i have a good time getting lit and watching the planes land right over you

had my friend take dakota the aussie on board and my dad got pissed from how much hair was everywhere lmao... which i felt was ironic considering what that boat is normally covered with

I take a bunch of people on a fishing trip once a year. It’s hilarious, the crew does everything and I very very is like “look at all the fish we caught!”. We caught nothing lol.

Then they clean it all for us too. AND they wear gloves when they do that! Pussies.

I used to fish a lot. Slimy fish never bothered me.

I wear gloves when changing my oil not because it's gross, but because it's so much easier to transition from dirty to clean. Take the gloves off to touch something I don't want to get dirty(the door handles, keys, gear shift, my phone, etc).
