Fishing rod handling device
11766035 · 2023-09-26 ·

The fishing rod handling device is an apparatus that can reduce the amount of stress received by wrists of users when reeling in game fish. To accomplish this, the device includes a handle attachment and a forearm grip attachment that may be detachably mounted onto a fishing rod. The handle attachment allows a user to hold the fishing rod in a comfortable position, since the handle attachment is oriented in a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the fishing rod. Further, the forearm grip attachment allows users to rest their forearms in a stable position, such that users may hold the handle attachment with their wrists and forearms in alignment. Additionally, a shoulder strap may be attached to the handle attachment, to provide additional support. Thus, the device allows for a strong and stable grip without causing any wrist injuries when reeling in game fish.

Multi-layered grip
11758891 · 2023-09-19 · ·

Disclosed are grips and methods of making grips for use with the handle of an article, and in particular for use with fishing poles and golf clubs. Grips preferably include a multi-layered gripping member and an inner sleeve or mounting body. The gripping member can include an outer layer with a fabric layer coated and preferably saturated by polyurethane. The outer layer can be bonded to an inner layer to form the gripping member which is then attached to the sleeve. The sleeve can be ground from a starting block of material or may be injection molded. Also disclosed are handles including a connector configured to couple to a portion of a fishing pole. Such handles may include a multiple layers and can be selectively removed from the article. Methods are also provided for selectively coupling exchangeable handles to articles including fishing poles.

Systems and Methods for Forming a Fishing Rod
20220007625 · 2022-01-13 · ·

A method embodiment for forming the fishing rod can include forming a tube comprising a carbon sheet. The tube can be formed by rolling the carbon sheet around a rod template. The formed tube can comprise a proximal region and a distal region. The method can further comprise coupling an assembly. The assembly can comprise the tube and a reel seat. During coupling of the assembly, the reel seat can encompass a distal region of the tube. The assembly can be molded for structural integrity by applying heat to the assembly and allowing the assembly to cure.
