Something like that (if it's high quality) without the huge/obnoxious logos

I have a couple of those and have worn them on 80+ degree days but always end up rolling the sleeves up. I just can't seem to get used to wearing long sleeves in hot weather.

Columbia button ups.

Wearing one now, can wear it with nice jeans or on the boat.

Eta...wearing the silver ridge, best seller.

The Louisiana sportsman breathables with the small logo on the chest and something written down the sleeve. They are the best I have found.

Free Fly lightweight Bamboo shirts. Tiny logo on the shoulder that's barely noticeable so you don't look like went on a PFG shopping spree.

What youre looking for is Merino Wool. It is amazing. Will keep you warm during winter and cool during summer, very breathable and accels at scent prevention. I like Minus 33 brand and First Lite gear is pretty much top of the line.

First Lite Llano Long Sleeve Merino Wool Crew

Expensive but absolutely worth every penny.

I wear Magellan brand from Academy. They have some of this style with just their small "M" logo on the chest. They do have a "Pro Angler" or somesort of line that has logos so you have to look around.

Here is the small logo one I have several colors of:

The Explorer Shirt by Rail Riders is the most conservative one I've come across.

I like the columbia long sleeves like the pic posted but with the hood, great for sun protection. Maybe doesn't fit your style requirement, but that hood has saved my neck countless times now

me too although most all of my clothes are Nike. I do have one of the megellan shirts and a Columbia sans logo on the sleeve.

Also the Nike dry fit golf shorts and pants are pretty badass for fishing. They breathe well, dry out fast and are damn near stain resistant.

Columbia has been making good outdoors clothing for decades. You'll not go wrong getting their stuff. Eddie Bauer makes some good stuff, or used to. Their stuff can be a little pricey at times though
