A temporary mounting device for temporarily mounting an article to a mounting support structure utilizes an elongated, curved main stem member having a length and being formed from a resilient material, the curved main stem member being curved lengthwise along the length. A mounting member extends from a distal portion of v-mount legs of a pair of v-mounts that are coupled to the main stem member and has an attachment element configured to attach the article thereto. A selectively releasable tension strap releasably secures the device to a mounting support structure.

The embodiments herein provide a beamer board for measuring length and comparing weight of two identical objects including fishes. The beamer board acting as a culling system comprises an elongated beam, a first attachment, a slot and a pair of notches. The elongated beam comprises several measurement marks along a length direction for measuring a length of the fishes. The first attachment extending from the beam acts as a starting point for measuring the length. The slot is provided at center for hanging the beam on a holder. The slot act as a fulcrum balance point for balancing the beam. The pair of notches is configured for hanging the objects for comparing the weight of the fishes. The fishes are hanged on the pair of notches using any cull markers available in the markets.

Operating at constant depth, various embodiments are provided equipped with automatic depth-control mechanisms in dynamic devices such as lures and carriers that acquire and maintain a constant target depth when pulled through a medium such as water. The depth-control mechanism incorporates a mechanical pressure measurement of depth using a bladder with changing dimensionality and mechanical coupling to a variable angle dive plane. The measured pressure is compared with the target depth pressure causing the dive plane angle to adjust and converge to an adjustable target depth with forward motion due to retrieval or trolling. The dive plane extension is optionally a variable angle lip or bill protruding from the front of the lure or a pectoral fin-like configuration. Multi-purpose carriers are provided that can perform various underwater sensing and measuring tasks. Included are systems and methods for using a lure or platform equipped with a depth-controlling device.

A vertical tackle box (1) in which leaders, lures and other fishing tackle may be hung in a vertical position from hooks (14) or pegs and further secured with straps or elastomeric cords (17) on opposing sides of the vertical tackle box. Flexible access covers (18) are preferably attached to the vertical tackle box by hinges (19) along upper edges to allow each access cover to be opened and folded back over the top of the vertical tackle box, thereby fully displaying the leaders, lures or other fishing tackle stored therein.

A fishing lure retrieval apparatus including a telescopic cylindrical pole and a looped strap attached to the cylindrical pole. A cylindrical hook attachment member is attached to and extended outwards from a front end of a front portion of the cylindrical pole. An S-shaped hook member is attached to a front surface of the cylindrical hook attachment member. The S-shaped hook member is perpendicularly disposed to and extended upwards above the cylindrical hook attachment member. The S-shaped hook member is selectively engageable around a fishing lure.

A floating bobber system for fishing which generates aquatic sounds that includes a floating bobber body having a water-tight hollow body interior and configured to at least partially float when arranged within a body of water. The system further includes an electronic circuit arranged within the body interior of the floating bobber body, the electronic circuit including a controller having reversibly programmable memory capable of replacaebly storing one or more aquatic sounds thereon, the controller being operationally coupled to a speaker for emitting the one or more aquatic sounds, a power source for providing power to the controller, and activation electronics for activating emission of the aquatic sounds from the speaker. The floating bobber body is configured to be coupled to a fishing line, and further configured to be coupled to a fishing bait.
