A marine animal netting device for catching crabs includes a pole, which is selectively extensible. A net is pivotally attached to the pole proximate to a first end of the pole and a handle attached to a second end of the pole. A line is loopedly positioned on and selectively extensible from a reel, which is attached to the handle, through line guides attached to the pole, and past the net. A connector, which is attached to a terminus of the line, is used to connect a bait. The handle is gripped in a hand of a user to manipulate the net and the bait into a body of water to attract a marine animal. The reel is used to reel in the bait and the marine animal into a position over the net, allowing the user to raise the net to catch the marine animal.

The present invention discloses an internal folding fish dip net including a net ring connecting piece, a handle, a folding main frame, a net pipe and a locking structure. The folding main frame includes a first folding main frame body and a second folding main frame body, and the locking structure is connected to the handle; the folding main frame further includes a directional shaft sleeve, the directional shaft sleeve is fixed in the first folding main frame body, the second folding main frame body is connected to the directional shaft sleeve in a sleeving mode and rotatably mounted on the directional shaft sleeve, and the handle is mounted in the directional shaft sleeve; a main frame hole is formed in the second folding main frame body, a directional hole is formed in the directional shaft sleeve.

The present invention generally relates to digital fishing net scales to determine the weight of a catch in the fishing net and to automatically record the weight. The present invention also relates to a system and method of automatically determining and recording the weight of a catch and catch related data, and to a system and method of generating fishing hotspot information. In particular, the present invention relates to digital scales that are communicatively connected to a system comprising a data store for automatically storing the weight of each catch/fish, and optionally for automatically storing related data. Related data may include catch related data originating from the digital fishing net scale or hotspot related data originating from devices/data stores operably connected to the hotspot system; illustrative examples include location, time, date, lunar phase, air temperature, water temperature, water depth, water salinity, weather conditions, species of fish, fish activity, and/or comments of a user. Further the present invention provides a system for generating fishing hotspot information that includes a digital fishing net scale, and methods that generate fishing hotspot information by determining and correlating weight data, optional catch related data, and hotspot related data with their corresponding location data.

A cover for a framed net having a handle includes a first panel and a second panel. The first and second panels are joined at a least a portion of their peripheries such that an opening is provided. The opening is sized to allow the framed net to be inserted between the first and second panels and to allow the net handle to pass through to the outside of the cover.

An ice fishing net apparatus that may be utilized to lift fish out of an ice fishing hole. The ice fishing net of the invention includes a hoop and net that is actuatable between a landing position and a netting position. The hoop has a round shape when viewed from the xy plane of an xyz coordinate system and further includes additional bends as viewed from the xz and yz planes such that the hoop conforms to a cylindrical sidewall of an ice fishing hole when oriented in either a landing or netting position. The ice fishing apparatus is particularly useful for netting fish from an ice hole while the user remains in an upright, standing position.

A fishing assembly includes a fishing pole and a housing coupled to the fishing pole. The housing defines a cavity sized to receive a collapsible net assembly therein. The fishing assembly further includes a net release mechanism for releasing the net assembly from the cavity. The net release mechanism is configured to engage the housing and is selectively releasable to disengage with the housing to allow the net assembly to be removed from the housing.
