    I was thinking of giving these a shot this winter.
    Anyone use them and like them?
    I’ve been wearing Ice Armors over the past few years and the quality seems to have been slipping.

    Thanks

    Every pair of Fish Monkey gloves I own have been great. In fact, I have a 6 yr old pair of Yeti gloves which after heavy use show little wear and tear. Found a 50% off deal at Marine General and bought another pair to start using in about 10 yrs….

    I have the Yeti gloves and they are durable. The problem I have is that they must not breathe as my hands sweat quickly and then my fingers freeze. I had a pair of Cabelas gloves that I wore for years and never had this issue. Unfortunately I left them on the snowmobile trailer and lost them somewhere down the road.

    I have yet to find a pair of ice fishing gloves that work for me. Either to big big bulky and warm or get wet and cold. I will have to check them out.
    Gloves are like boots though need multiple types for different conditions.

    Fish Monkey site usually has some good sales. Make great hunting gloves as well. Their fingerless gloves put all others to shame

    I have 4 pairs of the fingerless wool fish monkeys and love them. I wear them all hunting season and cold weather fishing. Never tried there heavier gloves.

    Always looking at this site cost me $. Just took a look at their site and the New Stealth Heavyweight Mitten may be just what I’m looking for for ice fishing. I’m starting to think I have a problem with not only collecting way to many flashlights but now also gloves and Mittens.

    I just do my moose hide choppers or gloves with a fish monkey fingerless wool glove as the liner.

    This is the same issue I’ve had over the years. Maybe I’ll give the fingerless ones a shot.
    Thanks all; tight lines!

    The Tundra EX’s are great. They are my deer hunting gloves for the past 4-5 years. I just bought another pair since they’re on clearance. I’m going to try the Tundra mittens for ice fishing as well.

    I use fingerless wool gloves 100 percent of the time fishing in cold weather . I wear goretex big ski gloves to warm back up over the top of them then tear them off and use the fingerless to do finesse things like tie knots or Rebait . They can surprisingly keep you warm a long time if you’re bloods flowing . Been using First lite brand. When the winds blowing and it dips below 25 ish they don’t cut it though .

    I have been using the cheap scheels gloves. They are lined and have rubber on the palm and fingers of the gloves. I just bring couple or three pair. You have decent dexterity for reeling and grabbing items from sleds. I agree with what someone said though that you need to have a couple of different styles with you at all times but these scheels ones are best bang for buck that I have found.
