I would recommend fingerless gloves with a rubber palm pad and a flip over mit cover.
I have some and the mitts are invaluable when your fingers get really cold and have to warm them up. Plus it keeps your non throwing hand fingers warm.
Wish I could tell you where I got them. They are camo.

Thanks for all the information. I went online and found a company that makes so good ones (I hope for the price). Has anyone bought these before or know anyone who has?

I wore a pair of the tx slam saterday.They have a slit in the thumb and trigger finger.Hands stayed warm exept the thumb that I had sticking out the slit.Neoprene is best if you wade.You get water in'm and your hands will still stay warm,By the fillet knives like caz said.Last edited by fuzzy; December 7, 2009, 07:15 PM.

Despite the bad reviews that these recieved on this website link, I'm here to tell you they did me well on a fly trip I took in Breckinridge Colorado 3 years ago...in the dead of Winter. I've been using them down here for the last 2 Winters and have'nt got a problem with them. Here's what I like...they are designed for snowmobile riding so they are pretty good at blocking the wind out. Especially if your behind a console. They are very flexible, so much so, that you can move your fingers and they grip the reel handle as well as the reel very well. I can actually fish with them on...no problem. They aren't waterproof, but spray them with a can of that waterproof spray and they work pretty good. If you dunk your hand it will get wet. Any protection is better than nothing though.
Just my .02, and to give you an idea of how cold it was when I went, we had to break ice off the rod eyes every 3rd cast. We fished for 3 hours and my hands took it because of these gloves.Don't be a Nancy!
If it smells like fish....you know I've been there!
