Gloves

[magpies]

I am going to have to bite the bullet and get some gloves because I suffer badly with cold hands. Once they go numb they take ages to get the circulation back. I fish with fixed spool so hopefully only need to take them off to bait up.

Any recommendations on best type to buy ?

A good pair of fingerless gloves with a large pair of mits using a f/s you just need to take off mits and wind in. Davy.

i bought some thick neoprene wet suit material pro action gloves and lopped off two fingers on each glove
Stick a firefly hand warmer in each pocket to warm up the exposed fingers when not busy

They're very uncomfortable and cold when they get wet, even more so in winter.

Got to agree with dave, fleece mitts are great, most golf shops sell them

Go outdoors sells the fleece lined mits that fold back for when u cast and keep your hands nice and warm

I would get a good pair of fleece windstopper gloves from an outdoors shop. You pay a bit more but they are well worth it.

look for a pair of ordinary fingerless gloves (can be bought off your local market or tackle shop) with built on mitts thats what i use also carry a spare pair in case it rains and you have dry pair for when it stops

I've just bought these, absolute bargain I think.

I suffer the same problem, cold hands can't enjoy my fishing! I put it down to working indoors, or being a southern softy! I usually buy 6 pairs of thinsulate gloves from aldi when they are on offer, when they get wet change em for a dry pair, wash dead easy, end of the winter bin em and start again.

I got myself a pair of fingerless gloves last year for my winter fly fishing. Went for a pair of merino wool ones and have to say they are great. Theyre not bulky at all and i can do most things while there on and best of all theyre very warm even when wet.

I use a set of Snowbee SFT, really thin neoprene, you dont have to take off to bait up, to cast , ( even with a multi.), very close fitting you can tie all the rigs you want ! lasted 2 seasons so far with no harm....about £25 a pair but knock the socks off others I have tried, barbour, sealskins, shimano Because you don't have to take them off, so fingies don't get chilled in first place !
Wore on one session with the rings freezing on my rod,( My car showed -11), could feel the cold but still very bearable !
