Nobody on here wears gloves unless it gets 30 to 40 deg below zero windchill
They told me to use the latex gloves like medical people use when I ask here and so I tried them. They are a surprisingly useful alternative to conventional gloves as most of the problem is often getting your hands wet I suspect. I'm sure they are useless at 30 below :-)
When it get really cold I have a pair of rag wool finger less glove with the mitten pull over. You can pull the mitten part over when driving the boat or hand get to cold to feel. I smear some RTV in the palm and mitten part so they wont be slick when driving. The con is hooks get caught in them easily. Other than that just finger-less Buff sun gloves
Been trying to use nitrile gloves or latex gloves (I don't see a huge difference). Keeps my hands dry plus I can still do knots and such pretty well.
What really gets hands messed up is the water evaporating off your skin.

skeeter96 nailed it, I also use the wool gloves with the finger tip cutouts.
My wife got me a pair of these for Christmas this year. Unfortunately I have not had a chance to try them out, but they look like they will work just fine for me.

Yup. You're a pansy!! [emoji23]
Latex or nitrile if it's wet out. Wool with finger slits if dry. My preference

Laying all jokes aside, I have fished for winter crappie more years than I want to say. It gets cold in northern Oklahoma and we went many times with temperatures in the low 20's and broke ice from the ramp to our fishin holes. The biggest issue with any gloves is when they get wet, other than rubber gloves, you might as well throw them in the lake. If you are catchin fish, they are gonna get wet. What we figured out with trial and error is a pair of the rubber bottom gloves that are cloth on top they sell in Walmart and other stores and call them fish cleaning gloves for around 4.00 a pair, you can buy at a dollar store for around 3 pair for 5.00 and then wear a heavier pair over them that's easy to take off before you land a fish works best. Always carry an extra set in case you get them wet. Pretty miserable fishing in 20 deg weather with cold hands
Sealskin gloves are waterproof and pretty warm as well. A bit pricey at around 40.00. Sealskinz is how it’s spelled. I never wore gloves before this winter. Something changed and I can’t take the pain any more- unless the fish are biting really well whereupon my fingers don’t hurt anymore.
I use the nitrile gloves but the thicker ones not the $5.00 per 100 ones. If my hands get real cold I will put neoprene gloves on over the nitrite gloves. I learned that trick riding 4-wheelers on the way to the deer stand. Nitrite gloves under an other gloves make them warmer. The nitrite gloves help with cleaning fish and skinning animals.
I use some cheap waterproof gloves off the Wish app. They keep my hands warm and dry. When its warm I dont wear gloves.

Wool gloves with a combination of fingerless and a mitten top that flips backwards and stays in place with Velcro is my winter gear.
Wool retailers name about 60% of its warmth capabilities even when wet.
