A minnow capturing system includes a tubular member that has an open first end, an open second end and a perimeter wall having a plurality of elongated slits. The slits expose portions of a minnow held within the tubular member such that a hook can extend through the slits and through the minnow. A housing for holding minnows and water has a bottom wall and a peripheral wall. The peripheral wall includes a front wall, a rear wall, a first side wall and a second side wall. A juncture is defined where the bottom wall meets the first side wall. The interior surface of the first side wall is concavel arcuate from the front wall to the rear wall. The tubular member is positionable against the juncture such that a minnow in the housing swims into the second end.

Provided is a fishing assist system configured to present various types of information on a catch to a fisher in association with actual catches, to thereby enable even an inexperienced fisher to easily acquire a fishing method leading to a catch. The fishing assist system includes: a fishing information distribution server configured to collect various types of fishing information from a fisher being a user and to distribute the fishing assist information to a user; a sensing device configured to be cast into water together with a rig to collect various types of fishing information; and a fishing assist program configured to enable communication between the user and the fishing information distribution server.

A device for measuring a weight and a length of a fish, the device comprising: a communication unit configured to transmit information to an external terminal; a fixing unit configured to hang and fix the fish; an elastic unit connected to the fixing unit and configured to generate an elastic force in response to the weight of the fish hanging on the fixing unit; a weight measuring unit configured to measure the elastic force using a weight sensor; and a control unit configured to generate information on the weight of the fish on the basis of the measured elastic force.

A system and method for managing and tracking fishing/hunting rules and regulations is provided. The system generally comprises a global positioning system (GPS), a processor operably connected to the GPS, a power supply, a display operably connected to the processor, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium coupled to the processor and having instructions stored thereon. The system and method are designed to easily and conveniently compile and store information or data related to wildlife sports. The system may use this information to help a user comply with state and federal rules and regulations via the creation of registration strategies and via indicia.

An angling system is disclosed. The system may include at least one fish bite detector and a fish bite sensor connected to a transmitter or transceiver. The fish bite detector may be configured to transmit a fish bite signal upon the fish bite sensor detecting a fish bite. The system may include at least one camera or at least one shutter actuator. The camera or shutter actuator may include a receiver or transceiver pairable with the transmitter or transceiver of the fish bite detector so as to receive fish bite signals transmitted by each paired fish bite detector. The camera or shutter may be configured to record/actuate upon receiving a fish bite signal.

Livewells of a vessel are used to store caught fish, such as during fishing competitions. Apparatuses, systems, and methods track and use fishing information for efficient operation and control of livewells and the associated pumps. An example marine electronic device of a vessel comprises a user interface with a display screen, a processor, and memory including computer program code. The memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the processor, cause the marine electronic device to receive an indication of a fish catch and cause, in response to receiving the indication of the fish catch, a pump associated with a livewell of the vessel to one of fill the livewell with water or recirculate water in the livewell, wherein the water is pumped from a body of water in which the vessel is at least partially submerged.
