Abstract
A fishing mitt for covering a user's hand and a portion of the fishing rod mounted on the fishing rod is disclosed, wherein the fishing mitt fastens around the wrist or forearm of the user. The rod protrudes from the front of the mitt, and an aperture is provided through which line passes from the fishing reel to the rod guides. The aperture is maintained in relatively fixed positions with respect to the fishing rod, in order to minimize the frictional resistance imparted by the aperture to line passing therethrough during casting or line retrieval operations. The reel handles protrude through the side of the mitt, and can be operated by the hand of the user opposite from the hand inside of the mitt.
