Looking for a set of gloves for fishing in the winter . Temps below freezing open water . ( river never freezes ) . I usually use wool fingerless gloves with relatively decent success however I always have to think there’s something better and waterproof or resistant . I want fingerless gloves , but don’t like the mitten flip over because it gets in the way of running a spinning reel . Anyone find any good heavy warm gloves that are fingerless you can still operate in ? Or am I looking for a unicorn here . Thanks for any suggestions .

The fingerless wools are the best for me From what I’ve tried. i agree the flip over sucks
First lite merino ones under the Simms.

I know some guys are using XXL heavy duty latex gloves over thin liner gloves, even a cotton jersey glove. Worth a shot, for very little expenditure.
Are the simms fingerless pretty wind / water resistant ? I was looking at those .First lite merino ones under the Simms.
For whatever reason, my hands stop functioning in the cold, seemingly way before any of my fishing buddies. So after trying multiple approaches, I’ve had best luck with light weight glove liners alternating hands periodically into super sized hand warmer equipped pockets for drying/warming. It keeps me going, but still not an optimal solution…so I’m tracking for new ideas!

Ice Armor.
Yeah, I like them enough. I think they're worth the money.

can’t speak to that, I buy the cheapest from the farms store. They do the trick for me
