Use the duck Huntin gloves. I think they're neoprene. I use minners, so my hands just gonna get cold and wet. Hard to handle minners with gloves. Lol

Anyone ever use the sealskin gloves? I have seem them advertised and the are suppose to be thin warm and water proof ... if that is POSSIBLE
I have a pair of the sealskins. They are waterproof, but they aren't very warm.
Creek the link didn't work for me
Can someone else check the links I posted they work for me.
Worked for me...led to convertible mitts.
Berkeley link led to Neoprene Fish Grip gloves.
Both links worked for me thanks for posting them...........................
David and I both wear neoprene gloves with the fleece lining. You can hold your hand in a bucket of icewater for 5 minutes and hands will still be warm. Get them off Ebay for about 15-20 bucks....I think they are made by Glacier. We also use them for cleaning fish in the wintertime.....otherwise, hands turn into a blockof ice.
I bought the sealskins for fishing in Oregon where my hands froze and they are not warm at all. Better luck with a pair of wool gloves, just take off to bait hook.
I've a pair of Glacier's. Can't remember the #, but they work well. Got them off E bay last year
Ditto on those classics.........
I have Glacier too....Ice Bay is what it says on the inside of glove...there a link on the glove too...

I didn't pay that much for'em though....
they are warm and dry
Bill, I learned a little trick some years back that really help when fishing with minners, we don't have to suffer as much as we think we do just cause we use live bait. If you keep your skin dry and block the wind you got half the battle won. If I am spider rigging minnows in the dead of the winter, I wear surgical gloves, it keeps water off of your skin and also blocks the wind from getting to your skin, plus if the fish are biting, at the end of the day you don't have to drive home smelling crappie slime on your hands every time you have to wipe your frozen nose. Also if extra warmth is what you are looking for then you can wear a pair of brown jersey gloves and put the surgical gloves on over them, then you get warm dry hands that stay dry and the wind can't reach your skin.
It works!
But I like the smell of crappie and minners on my hands, and nose!!! ;-)
Thanks for a great idea. How is the feel through the gloves tho? Seems like the latex would make the minners hard to handle being slippery and all. I have trouble with my hands grabbing minners some days, especially when they're active.

i use the ice bay also made by glacier . there waterproof and wind proof !!! they work pretty good!!!!!
Thanks guys I will look into them. Creek found site and gloves thx.
Our Wally world have neoprene gloves in the fishing dept. 7 or 8 bucks
Bill I don't have any problem handling minnow with the surgical gloves on.
I would look at the offerings from Columbia with the Omni-Heat liner. I bought my father in law a jacket with it last winter and he says it truly works. It is a heat reflecting liner they sew inside. My buddy has a pair of the Omni-Heat gloves he wears while crappie fishing. They are pretty dang thin but he rants and raves about how warm they keep his hands. It seems similar to the heat reflecting emergency blankets, guess it truly works. I usually just wear my waterproof hunting gloves or a pair of the fleece mittens that fold back to convert to a half-finger glove.
Not kidding here. Not the warmest but purdy darn good to great; better than nothing, golf waterproof and insulated gloves. Go see Steve at Edwin Watts golf store Shackleford Crossing in LR. Tell him I sent you. <'))))><
