Yep, the spray type sunscreen is what I use now as well. It's just easier and you can limit how much is on your hands. I learned that sunscreen residue on your hand can ruin or eat through some reels side plate paint. My Curado SF from a few years ago is still gummy feeling when I palm it in my left hand as I fish I can't think of what else could have done it? So I do my best to keep my left hand away from sunscreen!
Didn't Bill Dance have skin cancer and from that get the sponsor Blue Lizard suncreen?
