Long sleeve SPF shirt is the best. No fish repellent needed!

I agree with Crayfish. There are several brands(like Huk) that make a polyester style long sleeve shirt that is the same as 50spf or so. I find they also keep me cooler than a t-shirt or no shirt for some reason so its a double bonus. For the back of my neck I'll use the same material/brand in a tube buff that goes up under my hat and covers all around my whole neck. You wear it like a winter neck warmer. Same benefits as the shirt. You can also get them that come up and cover your whole face up to your sunglasses but I'm not a fan of having my mouth and nose covered in material. For my face I use a stick of spf70 and put it on before leaving the house, and have a stick in the boat to reapply. It comes in stick form like deodorant so I get very little on my hands. ...have had skin cancer removed so I try to keep myself covered one way or another.
