best ice fishing gloves

[thatoneguy]

Any testimonials regarding super-awesome gloves that still allow you to operate a reel? I've tried to get by with some cheapies, and it has been hard on my hands!

ice armour gloves not (the mit style ones) I have them and they werk just fine with reeling in slabs....

if you dont mind camo. cabelas has some nice gortex gloves with the longer cuffs. they seem to be nice and warm and water proof for when you have to grab the 'big one' out of the hole!! they sell for around $50 i think

Go with the cotton/wool half-finger with flip over mitt. Keep them out of the water and snow though.

I've got some Artic Armor gloves and like how the preform ,not only in the cold but also in the water.

Thats what I roll with as well. Don't have to take the gloves off to handle fish, unhook fish, or rebait , just flip over the mitt.

I keep one set of gloves (or mittens) to each pair of pockets in my outerwear -- ice armor, saranac, choppers, whatever -- and switch them out as the get damp from baiting up and unhooking fish. As far as operating a reel goes, I've extended all my reel handles. Even big mittens aren't a problem.

I wear the arctic armor gloves, just wish they made them a little bigger. But once the house is set up, the jacket, hat and gloves are gone.

I have some skin tight gloves I found at GM that I use inside the portable. Great for rebaiting and I can even tie knots with them if I have to. Outside, I use the wool flipover chops, as long as I am not reaching down and pulling pike from the water.

I gotta second Artic Armor gloves. Very warm, and I have bad circulation in my hands and these suckers work good.

Anyone ever try the Seirus All Weather Gloves (sold at FF) for ice fishing?? It says it is water proof and breathable.

I have the Ice Armor gloves. Work well cause I can use them to keep hands warm outdoors and small enought to operate my reel. But the plams ice up and they don't breath well (so hands sweat).

I need something that I can stick in the water or handle fish for those cold days. Wet hands in very cold conditions ... not good

[WallyGader]

Mark up another one for Ice Armor, got the mittens and the gloves and love em both!!

i tried the biggest artic armour gloves on but could not get them on my hands yup wish they were bigger

[allsports]

I got the Arctic Armor gloves free with the suit, but they are too small (in XL) and absorb water on the palms and freeze up. They take forever to dry.

The thin Ice Armor gloves are what I use for hole hopping, and I can reel etc. with them on.

[broman]

I have the Ice Armor. But they don't stay very warm after dipping them in holes, even though waterproof. I might buy a pair of Arctic Armor. They seem to be a little warmer.

I use the cut off finger/flip over mitten style. Very effective for fishing outside.

I have a pair of the ice armor finger style gloves. All I can say is they claim to be water proof and yet the soak up water better than a sponge. I'm not impressed with them at all and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone that is actually going to use them ice fishing. I give it to their marketing team though, they got me to spend my money on IMO one of the worst gloves made.

I never wear anything on my hands just because you will miss the light bites. When I had to fish outside because of a lack of shelter I would put a single mantle Colemen in a bucket and put in between my legs and then I would jig over the heat that was rising. Now days if it that cold I just get in my Otter. It just makes sense that if you are going to spend your money on a good graphite rod so it can be as sensitive as possible and then you put on a pair of gloves and lose that sensitivity.

I have used many different brand gloves and the artic armor gloves seem to work the best for me. They are very warm and will keep your hands dry.

You and I need to go fishing together...My kind of guy!
