My main concern is whether in tying knots, line would catch on the material reinforcing the ends of the glove fingers. (I tie lots of knots in a typical fishing day.) This sentence is no help: "They are cut far back enough so that tying a lure is easily accomplished while taking the gloves off." What did you mean to say?
