What sunscreen should I buy for largemouth bass fishing so it doesn't ruin the bite?

The one documented offender is PABA: Berkley researcher Keith Jones reported that bass are strongly repelled by it — and most modern sunscreens no longer contain it. Evidence on other actives is thin, so shop by the practical rule: a fragrance-free mineral lotion or stick (zinc oxide / titanium dioxide), not a scented spray. Better still, cover up — UPF hoodie, buff, sun gloves — so only your face needs lotion. Apply at home 20–30 minutes before launching, spread it with the back of the hands, then wash the palms with unscented soap. For largemouth it matters where the fish gets time to taste: Texas rigs, wacky worms and jigs, where flavour decides how long a bass holds on. Greasy fingers in a bag taint every worm in it, so shake baits out. On a burned crankbait, forget it.
