GunMitt by Snipe Hunt provides a uniquely simple solution to the age-old winter problem of cold shotgun hands with the warmth of a mitten that does not impair dexterity. Gloves of all types fail in extreme cold simply because each finger is on its own, and there is a lot of surface area for the wind to work. With GunMitt, fingers stay together to keep the heat. A 15-minute test was conducted holding a shotgun in 33-degree Fahrenheit air, an 8 mph wind and light snow. GunMitt maintained an internal temperature of 86 degrees while an insulated shooting glove lost more than 31 degrees. Fits on all shotgun actions for left- or right-hand shooters without any modification to the gun. Sight lines remain clear. Shooter’s hand slides in and out without assistance from the other hand. Neoprene outer layer, synthetic insulation and a synthetic liner (same as a performance sock). Small pocket inside may hold a heat pack on very cold days. Available in camouflage, blaze orange, and snow white. Made in the USA; suggested retail price $42. Contact: (913) 390-3924; www.gunmitt.com
Tru-Trip Deep Diver by Big Fish Tuff Tackle is ideal for salmon or walleye in deep lakes or rivers. Takes lures to 40-50 feet. Diver cruises along on the line ahead of the lure until a fish strikes. Upon hook-up, the diver instantly releases and aligns with the fishing line so you fight the fish and not the diver. Different attachment points fine-tune depth. Also can be adjusted for boat speed, bait weight, and even set to release on the minimum weight of fish you want to catch (don’t get greedy). Small, lightweight, tough and easy to use with bright colors, reflective glitter and rattles that attract fish. If the line breaks without a fish on, the unit will float to the surface for easy recovery. Guaranteed leak-proof electronic-welded hi-impact plastic in Chartreuse, Purple Power, Orange, Blood Red, Stealth Smoke and Clear. All hardware is stainless steel; 100-percent American made. Suggested retail $11.99 for 40-foot model (4 inches long) and $13.99 for 50-foot model (7 inches long). Weight 1.4 and 3.2 ounces, respectively. Contact: Big Fish Tuff Tackle Co., Dept. FFG, P.O.
