The present invention discloses a remote controlled unmanned fishing boat intended to effect remote control fishing. The remote controlled unmanned fishing boat includes a fish shoal detector for detecting a shoal of fish, a first transmitter for transmitting by specific radio waves the information concerning the shoal of fish detected by the fish shoal detector, a propelling power source for propelling the boat, a controller for steering the boat, and a first receiver for receiving specific radio waves concerning the operations of the fish shoal detector, the propelling power source, and the controller, all for inducing the operations. Further, the boat is provided with a lifting handle for lifting the boat from the water surface, wherein the lifting handle is formed from a cutout portion of the boat.

The fishing pole having integrated weighing system measures the weight of a fish caught by the fishing rod. The fishing pole having integrated weighing system comprises the fishing rod, a strain measurement device, and a control system. The strain measurement device measures the curvature of the fishing rod. The strain measured by the strain measurement device is converted by the control system into an estimated weight of the fish caught by the fishing rod. The fishing pole having integrated weighing system is configured to work with an externally provided remote monitor. The control system sends the strain measurement device data to the remote monitor. The fishing pole having integrated weighing system further comprises a cuff. The cuff is a shell that protects the strain measurement device while allowing for the unhindered motion of the fishing rod.

A fishing information management system has a fishing rod to which a fishing reel with a spool capable of winding a fishing line is attached, and is configured to include an operation/environment information detector that detects information on operation and environment of operation of fishing tools when in use including the fishing reel and the fishing rod, a calculator that calculates the skill levels in operating the fishing tools from information on the operation of the fishing tools, a storage that stores the detection values and the skill levels, and an indicator that displays at least either of the detection values or the skill levels.

A detection device for detecting a fishing device entering water and a method thereof are provided. The detection device includes a waterproof housing, a circuit board, a capacitive sensing module, and a control unit. The capacitive sensing module and the control unit are disposed on the circuit board. The capacitive sensing module is disposed adjacent to an inside wall surface of the waterproof housing and senses a capacitance value. The control unit receives the capacitance value and when the control unit makes a determination, according to the capacitance value, that the fishing device has entered water, the control unit generates a control signal to activate a to-be-controlled device.

A fishing gear harness assembly including at least one flexible, adjustable member to be worn by a user, the at least one flexible, adjustable member having a forward portion and a rearward portion, a battery container connected to and extending rearward from the rearward portion and being configured to enclose a battery, a mount releasably connected to the forward portion and being configured to support at least one marine electronics unit that includes at least one electronic display and a submersible portion, and a power cable extending from the battery container and toward the front portion.

Systems for deploying and monitoring fishing rigs are described. A jug fishing rig in various embodiments includes a float supporting tackle and a signal assembly. The signal assembly may include a lamp and an accelerometer for detecting movement of the float in response to a fish striking the tackle. When the detected movement exceeds a threshold acceleration, the lamp emits an alert such as a color change. The signal assembly may include a panel of programmable MEMS components, including a microprocessor. The panel may be attached to a disk that fits between the neck of the float and its cap, securely supporting the signal assembly inside the float.

A fish strike signaling assembly for alerting a user to a fish strike includes a tip-up that catches fish. A lighting unit is coupled to the tip-up. The lighting unit emits a visible light when the tip-up is triggered. A power supply is electrically coupled to the lighting unit. A power button is electrically coupled to the power supply and is actuated to an on position to provide power to the lighting unit

A fish finder system for a vessel is provided with an interface to connect with a transducer configured to transmit an ultrasonic signal into a water body and receive a reflected echo signal, and an autopilot device configured to control a rudder being attached to the vessel. Further, the fish finder system is provided with processing circuitry communicatively coupled to the interface and configured to detect a position of a fishing rig, measure a vector from the vessel to the fishing rig, and generate a rudder control signal for the autopilot device to control the rudder based on the measured vector.

An electrical transmission line cable suited for a variety of applications, including as a fishing line in a video fishing system. The electrical transmission line cable has a first conductor and a second conductor forming an electrical transmission line; a jacket containing the first conductor and the second conductor; and a transmission line primary dielectric element separating the first conductor and the second conductor, wherein the primary dielectric element is at least one of textile yarns, fiber yarns, or monofilaments. The electrical transmission line may be in a balanced configuration or an unbalanced configuration.

A fishing information processing system includes an acquisition unit that acquires prescribed fishing information, an information accumulation controller that accumulates the prescribed information acquired by the acquisition unit as accumulated information, an estimation unit that estimates optimum conditions related to a fishing trip based on the accumulated information accumulated by the information accumulation controller, and a provision unit that provides the optimum conditions estimated by the estimation unit to a user.
