Fingerless gloves don't do it for me since it's my fingertips that
freeze. So I'm generally not fishing if gloves are needed. I never cease
to be amazed at how the ice fishing guys can do it.
=========

I use to do a lot of ice fishing in Indiana....loved it! We would build
a fire on the ice, wear really warm clothes, and "gloves"!

Since we used "tip-ups", no need to hold the pole....just take off the
gloves long enough to get the fish off the hook and throw em on the ice!

But I am with you now! When it gets so cold I "hurt"....fishin can wait
for a warmer day!
