I'd like to tell you that I'd found the gloves to meet your needs, but like you I've tried them all and determined that I just can't stand fishing with gloves on. Instead, I carry the hand warmer packets in my pocket and stick my hands in to warm them up whenever they get too cold to use. You can buy the warmer packets at STP in Meridian and they last 3 hours or so once activated.
BTW, I hate fishing in gloves.

It's been so cold this last week that all of my duck calls freeze up after you blow them once (8 degrees one morning with a high of 14). Lots of birds though! Have a lot of mallards, pintails, snows, and teal in the freezer. The honkers have eluded me so far, even though they are here by the thousands (especially in my back yard).

I had Helen buy 40 pairs (80 ea.) of heat packets on sale at Costco today for $12.99. I will give these a try tomorrow while duck hunting.

Jon,
I'll pick up some nitrile gloves in the morning and give them a try.
Thanks guys,
Jeff
