Casting gloves are one of the most important elements of fishing equipment. They are especially useful when using strong fishing lines to cast heavy rigs over long distances, which is common in carp fishing, feeder fishing, and shore sea fishing. The Carp Pro glove is made of neoprene and features a reinforced palm patch. This reinforcement allows prolonged use of a throwing stick ("cobra") without causing blisters. It also provides protection for the index finger from damage caused by braided line during powerful casting of heavy rigs. The finger guard is made of highly durable, cut-resistant material. The neoprene used in the glove is highly elastic and does not restrict hand movement.
