A fishing device for engagement with a fishing line includes a motor, a power source, a housing, and an actuator assembly. The power source provides power to the motor. The housing defines an interior cavity. The housing prevents water from interacting with the motor and the power source. The actuator assembly is driven by the motor. The actuator assembly is configured to provide movement to the fishing line.

A fishing caddy system which generally includes a rod holder assembly having at least one rod holder which may be rotatable to different angles to suit the user. There are hooks in the rod holder assembly for receiving the fishing line and thereby preventing the wind from blowing the line around, resulting in faster detection of catches. The rod holder assembly can be mounted to a universal mounting receiver which can be placed on any stationary body. Cup holders and other accessories may also be mounted in proximity to the rod holder assembly using other universal mounting receivers. An accelerometer may also be included which detects vibrations caused by the fishing line against the hook, alerting the user via LEDs or a wireless alert sent to the user's wireless computing device, such as a smart phone.

An indicator assembly attachable to a butt end of a fishing rod includes a cylinder on which two information carrying rings are rotatable to selected positions. Each ring carries a plurality of information about the fishing line on that fishing rod. Each ring is rotatable on the cylinder to bring selected information to an indicator supported at the cylinder. A fastening element holds the elements of the assembly together.
