I don't carry spares because that just means that I will lose two of something rather than just one of something.   :D
You just described me!

I have pretty much given up on gloves...  I just cannot imagine a bird seeing my hands and running for the hills...

I do feel a face mask is important, as our heads move and bob around, and the oils shine of the skin of a face are the first thing I can pick out on duck hunters...

I do hate wearing a face mask though...  Tough with glasses, and just a general pain.  That being said, I do carry an extra in the vest.
Did I do that?

Fly fishermen are born honest, but they get over it.

I agree with the facemask for cutting down on the glare/shine from the oil in our skins.  Friend of mine flew over some duck clubs years ago and in the pictures it was easy to do a count on how many folks were hunting - faces showed up easily.  I wear glasses so I put some camo cream under my eyes to cut down on the glare from my glasses.

Somehow I always lose the same hand glove out of each pair. I know I'm not the only one. Gloves absolutely defy statistics of random chance.

The buffalo gnats and mosquitoes often make gloves and a head net a necessity here in Southern Illinois, especially if one is setting up near a wet area. I always carry a couple of set of each plus a black plastic garbage bag to spread out under my ground lounger so that my butt stays dry and allows me to place my calls above any moisture.
