Back in the day when I didn't mind the cold so much I had a pair of neoprene flip-mitt gloves that were awesome. Nowadays when the weather turns cold I just sit around the house in my flannel pajamas and watch fishing on TV.
I just use the brown jerzee gloves. Cut the tip of the index finger out on my left hand so i can feel the line and the tip of the thumb out on my right hand so i can thumb the line on the cast. Keep several pair in the boat so when one gets wet i can just swap em out. I do have a pair of under armour i use when im using a spinning rod and i can put the hot hands inside the glove on top of my hand and still fish comfortably. I always keep hot hands in the pockets of my coat so i can ocassionaly put a hand in there and warm it up a little
I usually use finger less wool gloves I get from BPS. Wolf River brand, I think. GET the really, really tight woven ones. They are not waterproof, but even when wet wool continues to insulate, unlike most other materials.

I have used these type of gloves for many years, used to be Hot Shot and a lot of other names, they work, I cut the finger flaps off and take the Velcro off, only thing is not get them too tight...JMO

I always buy the biggest pack of hot hands the store has because I do the exact same thing you do. I wouldn't be able to fish without em. I use a pair of under armor gloves. Don't remember what kind but they work well with spinning rods.I just use the brown jerzee gloves.

I used to scuba dive and the best thing that came from it are Akona dive gloves. Fairly lightweight so easy to fish, not super warm, but better than most. Finally, if they get wet, they dry out quickly, and your hands stay warm! I also used to keep these gloves in my Harley for rainy days. They worked great for that too!

When it gets too cold to fish barehanded I use a thin pair of the Under Armor gloves. I have not had any trouble casting my spinning or bait-casting rigs. They are thin enough to keep my hands warm yet I can feel the bites. I also have a pair of thicker, warmer gloves for running to different locations.
Best gloves you can buy is a pair of winter golf gloves, put toe Warmers in them since their thinner then hand Warmers, and then buy a size larger then you wear in waterproof golf gloves. Then you have warm hands and still water proof. With using golf gloves you can also leave them on while you tie on baits.
Exactly what I do, except I don't cut any of the fingers off, don't like exposed finger tips. Keep a fresh pair in each pocket, so you always have a warm dry set to put on. Use heavy gloves for running.I just use the brown jerzee gloves.

I've tried several different types of gloves, and this system works best for me.
I am not much of a glove guy but you might look at some of those riding (motorcycle) gloves. Some of them can be pretty durable yet thin and functional.
look at SIMMS website, they have a variety of good gloves to choose from
