A cast net throwing device is provided for use with a cast net including a netting defining a mesh, with the netting being bounded at an outer periphery by a lead line, and the cast net that may including a plurality of brail lines secured at opposite end to the lead line and interconnected there between to a throw line, with the throw line and brail lines operating in combination with one another to close the net when a user pulls on the throw line. The cast net throwing device comprises at least one handle member having apertures for accepting brail lines, (throwing device) operatively secured to the central area of the netting intermediate the lead line, without interfering with the function of the brail lines of the cast net. The handle member is sized and configured to permit a user to grasp the member, thereby enhancing the user's ability to impart rotation to the cast net when the cast net is thrown. This enhancement is effective because mechanical advantages are imparted to the throwing process, and therefore the opening of the net during the throwing process is enhanced as a result of additional centrifugal force being applied to the net opening process as well as a sequential engagement of force due to varying radii about the axes of rotation. It is preferred that the throwing device be a circular ring.
An improved cast net having a circular net portion, a lead line which circumscribes the periphery of the circular net portion, a thimble which is located approximate the center of the circular net position, a throw line, and a plurality of brail lines which pass through the thimble, one terminal end of each brail line being attached to the lead line, the other terminal end of each of the brail lines being attached to a terminal end of the throw line, wherein the improvement comprises:
A process for throwing a cast net with one hand comprising of the steps of;
