THE STRIPPER CASTING GLOVE My favorite (Ed). Whether you're stripping streamers with a 6-wt rod while floating the Yellowstone River, or wading a bonefish flat with your 8-wt, consider this one. A CASTING GLOVE makes casting a lot easier (less tiring), while protecting your fingers. HERE'S WHY: A synthetic leather palm allows for secure grip while casting. The pointer & middle fingers extend, leaving only your fingertips exposed. The fly line slides smoothly over your digit PREVENTING grooves and friction burns. Sun protection also provided.
