Aaron, you won't be dissapointed with the trophy gaitor.
My buddy Brian is also a ginger. My daughter actually tells him... "It puts the lotion on the skin" even though she has never seen the movie. Hilarious
I don't wear shorts (just never have). I wear lightweight zip off paints (never zipped the legs off). I purchased all of my current ones at Gander Mountain (about the only thing I buy there). Lightweight, breathable, and keeps the sun off while keeping you cool. I always carry lotion and extra long sleeve shirts just in case someone needs it. We even have straw hat sombraros!
A bimini top just gets in the way with how I walleye fish but, we purchased a beach umbrella. It is lightweight, stores in a small bag, and pops up easy. I can set it right in the middle of my divideded windshield with the shaft on the ground. I use velcro straps to attach it to the window support. Works like a champ when there isn't much wind out to keep you cool.
I have OCD "Obsessive Crappie Disorder"
