i've been using the glacier gloves and they're nice man, really are. i have the ones that have half the fingers exposed improving dexterity when tying lures and what not. also have a rubberish texture in the palm so your rod will stay in your hand, which is kinda important. still only use them on boat rides getting to certain spots. it dampens the feel, when fishing. chances are this time of year youre fishing slow, so that extra bit of sense of touch is critical. and sometimes its too cold and i have no choice but to wear them while i fish.
