Great thoughts on winter fishing. I have been using non-latex medical gloves during cold days. Most days, that may be all that I wear as long as I’m moving around to keep warm. Always carry the finger-less mittens too when it’s really cold or before I warm up. They’re nice when releasing a fish and I assume having the glove on is better for the fish too. Makes you wonder if that’s what should be used all the time.
