Doesn't matter what you wear, as you will eventually HAVE to take them off to unhook your fish.
Oversized / waterproof mittens for me. Slip off...unhook fish...slip on. And that's if I use them at all. Unless it is bitter cold, I go without. Keep a hand towel in my suit to keep hands dry. As for gloves, of any kind that are designed to keep you warm...they're going to be cumbersome..period. They are difficult to wear while reeling...not easy to detect any bites by feel...and they can be a pain to get on and off. jmo.
Has anyone used a pair of gloves from FXR? Popular snowmobile clothing brand especially in Canada. I know they started making ice fishing suits also.
