Inexperienced fishermen going winter fishing for the first time don’t even think about choosing gloves, believing that they can get by with their regular mittens. But in reality, mittens are one of the most important components of winter fishing equipment - and beginners have time to understand this as soon as they step out into the harsh wind and water. In order not to spoil your vacation, let’s figure out which models are best for winter fishing.

What qualities should fishing mittens have? They are warm, do not succumb to the pressure of the cold winter wind and should not hinder the fisherman’s movements. Most of these gloves are transformable models, which are usually similar in cut. The main difference between them is the material from which they are made. The most successful options are:
- Things made of neopreon;
- Fleece items;
- A mixture of polyester and polyurethane.
Nepreon – an excellent material for winter equipment in damp areas.It is not blown by the wind, does not get wet, is light and comfortable. Nepreon gloves are often lined with fleece - this makes them even more comfortable and convenient.
Fleece - a pleasant and lightweight material that is not subject to strong winds, but has one drawback - it gets wet easily. And synthetic mittens are most often a combined item of clothing - synthetics help protect your hands from moisture and dirt, and a warm lining, for example, fleece, will keep your fingers warm.
