Okay, so do you bring all old clothes to trash at the end of the day or do wear “performance” clothing?

Neither. Shorts and tee-shirts from previous trips, proudly worn with, hopefully, year's worth of blood stains.

Fishworks shorts and pants and then t-shirts from the boat or different trips. It all gets washed twice when I get back and folded and put back in the big Shimano bag till the next one.
Socks are a one use item. Buy a cheap pack at Ross and throw them away at the end of the day fishing. No reason to funk up the state room anymore than it will on its own.
My used clothes during the trip get rolled up and put into 3 gallon freezer bags with a spray of Fabreeze. I try to be a good bunk mate

I like to just bring 3 days worth of clothes plus 1 set of throwaways on a 10- day, then set up a clothesline down the middle of the stateroom to let them airdry after I shower at the end of the day with my clothes on. A lot of people don't know this but Tide makes for a pretty good shampoo and body soap as well as a laundry detergent...

“Performance” is pretty comfortable, UV protection, water resistant and wicking. Depends on what you are buying . Sometimes ol’ school though. i lkie Fiskworks, HUK and Aftco. They wash well too.

basic water resistant pants that you'd go running in with board shorts underneath if it gets hot, usually wear a hoodie with a t-shirt underneath, if im on a 2 day or less i only bring a backpack of gear. You might think i've never fished in my life. I like traveling under the radar.

Have always worn blue jeans and a tee shirt, but in October I'm upgrading to more performance style stuff. Goal is to cut down of what I have to take cloths wise and improve comfort.

Socks are single use, performance pants and shorts, crapy shirts for their last use. If I needed shirts (which I don't) they would be thrift store. 5 dollar shirts all day long. 2 set of boots and water shoes.

Nifty performance clothing for non-fish days. Old, stained performance clothing for fishing days.

Arrival & departure - blue jeans [stuffed in boots for off-loading fish] and cotton T shirt.
Footwear > 12 inch Evair boots w/ inserts on top of insole, and closed-toe sandals - Evair or Keens.
2 pair black synthetic fabric fishing pants that I can wash in the shower; then several washable synthetic fabric long sleeve hooded sun shirts (hood also holds cap on head in the wind). I use wide suspenders [over shirts] for pants with pliers/knife/stuff.
At dinner I try to be post-shower with clean clothes - usually synthetic fabric pants with fresh cotton T shirt or thin synthetic T under long sleeve button-front shirt.
PS
I like the idea above of cheap/thin disposable socks for fishing days,
-- I often wear my sandals when not a "bloody deck" fishing day..

I use some nylon shorts from Costco and similar with shirts. Some are fishing shirts from BassPro that I find on their clearance page. I bring a new set for each day plus one, in case I get really sweaty on those hot and humid days. If they cause ant smell in the stateroom they go upstairs where I keep most of my gear.

Performance shirts and shorts. That get changed and put in a glad sented garbage bag. A extra set for when I get off the boat to sort fish . If I get dirty when sorting fish I have a clean set in my truck for the drive home.

Same - I do have a pair of "performance" (water resistant) pants that I wear but that are heavily blood stained
