I used the Glacier Gloves last fall. Pretty nice overall...can't say they are worth the price tag, but they held up pretty well and were warm. They did see some mid November fishing on BI, and it was freaking COLD!

Glacier gloves---or any neoprene gloves---are almost as bad as going bare handed unless you get the polypropelene liners for them.

I've never fished in cold weather with the Aquaskinz gloves, but I can tell you this---they're the only fishing gloves I've ever put on that you could thumb thru a magazine while wearing them. The dexterity they provide is amazing.

This is true.they are like a refrigerator for ur hands.they are bulky with the liners but svaed my hands plenty when fishin thru january.My favorite gloves though are a pair of simms that i left in Tims boat last february.I gues they are like a fleece.they will wick water pretty good for a while.they are open fingered i like that.we fish here in NJ till the end of dec. for the most part.i remember last yr. the week before christmas it was a nice day like 37 degrees an was gettin em here an there.without gloves hooked up wit gary an we fished into the dark an it got cold.my hands where so wet an cold I didn't want to catch anymore.but i kept castin.we left there an got some coffe an poured it on ourselves.

So who sells these glacier or aqua skins gloves anyway?
got a link ?
sounds like they could be helpful for cod fishing during the winter!

The glacier gloves I have have a fleece lining that is very warm and comfortable. If you arent constantly getting wet than I would look at other gloves but if you are in the surf all night neoprene is the way to go.
