Location: MN | I know its a ways off, but I was thinking about some solutions for late fall fishing and keep my hands dry and warm. What has everyone else come up with? Is there a good glove out there that will keep you warm and dry, but not be too bulky? Or is a combo of liner gloves and rubber kitchen cleaning gloves the best option?
Thanks

| I have the same problem with my hands to. I was thinking about wet weather golf gloves. Since I don't golf, does anybody have any experience with these? |

Location: WI | Check out the Seirus Extreme gloves. They're designed for X country skiing so they are breathable, lightweight, water & wind proof, and insulated. Take it from somebody who had serious frostbite on both hands, these gloves are a winner. Avoid the latex/nytrile under light cotton gloves, OK for some but if your hands get clammy, it could be a quick exit to the landing. |

I have bad circulation, so it has always been an issue for me keeping my hands warm fishing in the fall. My wife got me a pair of these one year, and I have been wearing them every since. The inside never gets wet, eventually the outside picks up enough water to make your hands chilly, but I have a few pairs that I change out when one gets to waterlogged on the outside. Great flexibility and easy to cast with these, especially since the fingers on them have a grippy material.

Location: Ludington, MI | There is no perfect cold-weather glove that will give you adequate dexterity and adequate warmth. I suggest immersion therapy. Start putting your hands in icewater now and you'll be ready for the fall. |

| I just wear baseball batting gloves. When one pair gets wet and too cold.I just grab backup pair. But then again my hands don't get to cold. |

| The problem that I have found with any gloves is that you lose your feeling. It makes it harder to do small things like changing lures. |

Location: Nordeast Minneapolis | I picked up a pair of neoprene fishing gloves from Cabela's (searching for them, I only found them on Bass Pro Shops, but these are them- http://www.basspro.com/Bass-Pro-Shops-Neoprene-Fishing-Gloves/produ...)
I'm very impressed. They're very comfortable, warm, and the fold-back fingers give you dexterity when you need it. The velcro is a little annoying; particularly the one that wraps around your whole wrist. HIGHLY recommend a pair if you're out in cold/wet weather. |

Location: God's Country......USA..... Western Wisconsin | Go to a good sport shop ( football baseball shop) and get a pair of football receiver gloves. They are absolutley amazing and are almost sticky to the touch. Best thing ever for the cold weather. |

| Glacier gloves. Lightweight neoprene with a very light lining with full fingers. No velcro. Keeps your hands dry. Dry hands are warm hands. Will wear one or two pairs out in a fall season. Cost around $16. We pay $30 for a bait and $600 for a rod and reel combo so $30 plus to keep your hands dry and warm makes sense. I have found them at Gander Mountian and other sporting goods stores. I change gloves mid day since your hands create a little moisture on the inside of the glove throughout the day. |
