jiggz125 Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 Hey Guys, I do not want to put my gear away quite yet, but it is starting to get cold up here in WI. Does anyone have any suggestions on some decent gloves for fishing so my hands dont freeze? I dont want to spend a fortune, typically I shop at Gander Mountain, Wal-Mart, and Blains Farm and Fleet for fishing stuff. Thanks in advance Quote
Super User Jig Man Posted October 30, 2013 Super User Posted October 30, 2013 I wear rain gloves from US Gloves. Sometimes they are in the golfing department at Bass Pro. They run me around $12 per pair. I have been using them for at least 10 years. Quote
Super User bigbill Posted October 30, 2013 Super User Posted October 30, 2013 There are some thinner ice fishing gloves. Quote
Super User rippin-lips Posted October 30, 2013 Super User Posted October 30, 2013 I just always use the Berkley neoprene gloves you can but at Walmart. There like $12 and the pointer finger and thumb have a slit that folds back so you can tie lures and such. 1 Quote
Super User MarkH024 Posted October 30, 2013 Super User Posted October 30, 2013 I got some gloves at BPS last year, Timber something brand. I can't quite recall the name. They're fleece with the fingertips cut off, they do a great job except for the occasional hook point that gets stuck in there if you're not careful. They were in a big bin at BPS during the spring classic sale for $5 each pair. I wish I'd grabbed another 2 or 3 pair just to have. Quote
Dave P Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 Glacier gloves fingerless. When it gets really cold, wool fingerless. And hand warmers... Quote
JacobK Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 I have the fingerless White River BPS fleece gloves, definintely worth the couple bucks I paid for it. Quote

wnybassman Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 I've tried a few over the years and keep going back to plain old brown jersey gloves. $10 for a dozen pairs. I usually start a day with 3 or 4 pairs in my various pockets, and if it's wet out I change as needed although they still maintain some sort of warmth even when fairly wet. I can thumb a baitcaster, cast a spinning reel and even tie knots without taking them off. Quote
BuffaloBass716 Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 My brother got me a pair of fishing gloves from gander mountain for my birthday last week. I think they were between $10-20 and they work great, they say Rapala on them and are rubber coated so they are water proof, I also use them while riding my bike to keep the wind off. Quote
coryn h. fishowl Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Fingerless gloves that go 3/4 up your fingers are what I like, but I need some new ones too. Quote

I can thumb a baitcaster, cast a spinning reel and even tie knots without taking them off. I'm the same way. I just put on the gloves, insert a set of chemical hand warmers on the tops of my hands and I am good to go. If they get wet, I simply change them out. I've tried a lot of the high-tech stuff, but I keep coming back to my cheap cotton gloves - but then, I don't live in areas where one's snot immediately turns to ice. Quote
Insanity Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 Man Ive found some I love. Home Depot has them there simple black stretchy tight fitting rubber coated inside the grip side and open just enough on the back of your hand as not to sweat. Water tight on the grip side after must have been 50 white bass I cought one day last year. Washed them in the washer smell like new continue on. And there tuff as hell to. $5 but I've only seen them in large. I've got med hands but the large is tight on me. There thin and you can feel threw them. I can get my lighter and cig out of my pocket and light it with them on. Good enough for me down to 20 degrees tested. Assume glove for fishing. Gorilla grip I think the name is. Heck I've even used them when moving concrete block and they are still water tight. They don't appear that tuff on inspection. But they are. Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted November 1, 2013 Super User Posted November 1, 2013 Glacier gloves fingerless. When it gets really cold, wool fingerless. And hand warmers... I also sport the glacier gloves. Very handy for the 35-50 degree days with wind. For anything under freezing it really isn't worht the hassle as my guides start icing over on the rod as does the line. Typically my open water fishing has ended at this point. Quote
