Thread: The Right Fishing Gloves For Cold Weather

I just put the small throw away hand warmers in my gore tx an they are really toast-e

I bought 2 sets of neoprene gloves for gigging and they just didn't work out. They kept our hands dry but got very cold. I kinda thought it might be from sweat. Most of the time we use gore tex to gig with, then a dry pair to run the motor with. With gigging the heavy gloves isn't a problem unlike crappie fishing.

I do the jerseys. There is very little I can do with gloves on. Neoprene are fine until the first time you take them off then you are done. Hands get cold and never warm back up. The problem is I can't tie a jig on with them so I have to take them off. Jerseys with handwarmers for me. If it gets to cold with them it is time for the fireplace and some Johnny Walker!

I also keep several pairs of the jersey gloves on board and use the chemical handwarmer packets in them.

When running down the lake I like these gloves where the neoprene is only on the palm side of the gloves so there is not the problem with the build up of sweat inside the gloves.

Were do you put in Dave? I have not been in years. Use to go several times a season when Griffy was younger. We had a blast, killed a boat load several times.

Hey Zip. I usually put in down at 89 bridge, its not far from where I live. I have put in at Pointers Creek, Linn, sometimes Paydown at my ex in-laws place. I have put in at Vienna and a few places other places. I think it closes Friday or Sat. night. Its a little late this year but if you want to go next year give me a holler, I'd be glad to take anyone that wants to go. Dave

Jerseys for me. I keep about 10 pairs in my boat at all times in the Winter months. When 1 pair gets wet, just put on another.

I can see it next winter 6degrees,sleet with a little snow mixed in wind out of the north at 9mph Dave and bugs giggin away and zip laying in the bottom of the boat in a fetal position sniviling i'm cold i'm cold i wanna go home so Audrey can baby me some more:p:Dseriously we need to hook up next winter and give er a go thats something i've never done but would like to try........at least once
