Tell me what you wear when it's Sub-Zero out and you're running snares.
I want to buy some probably on Amazon but I want to get some input first. I'll be using these in Northern Montana it can get down to 40 below or worse or it can be 0 or 20 above.

Those green fabric work gloves that have been around forever, while setting. A pair of Give'r mitts between sets.

Dave you have to remember down here in Montana those green gloves are called " Chore Gloves " then we understand completely ha ha
I used to buy them in bulk quantities 12 pair at a time . With heated grips on my snowmobile anything heavier is just to much.

I like chore gloves even better after I run them through the washer and dryer, I wash and dry brand new ones. Seems to fluff them up some and they breath a bit better. My problem is my hands sweat in regular heavy gloves then their done. When my hands sweat in chore gloves they actually dry out on their own due to some crazy evaporation deal I guess.

Snow machining in Canada I wear loose fitting leather mitts over chore gloves. When I get to the fishing hole or next set I just pull mitts off, throw them under windshield and work with chore gloves on.

I agree they're great with a big Army surplus mittens over them if its really cold out . Or a lite liner inside of the chore gloves isn't to bad as long as they still are loose fitting.

Yup, too tight = frozen fingers for me. The more room the warmer for me anyway. It can be a chore, to find chore gloves large enough to be loose fitting around here. When I find 2x in stock I make a bit of a pig of myself. LOl
