A bait holder to promote humane treatment of live bait having a plurality of ribs that extended from a spring and at least one clip at least one leader connected to a fish line and a hook. The spring may be longer for better hook placement. The leader maybe hollow for buoyancy so the bait stays alive causing better results. At least one attachment sight is connected to the leader. At least one hook attachment is connected to the leader. The number of ribs is reduced or increased directly proportional to the size and kind of the bait.

The present invention includes a fishing rig and fish hook for live bait. The fish hook comprises a main body extending in a plane and defining a longitudinal axis, a first end, a second end, a top side and a bottom side. A plurality of hook portions extend from the body. The body further comprises an eyelet for attaching a fishing line. At least two shanks anchor the fish hook to the bait fish, one of the shanks extends from the first end at least partially along the longitudinal axis and the other shank extending from the second end at least partially along the longitudinal axis. The at least two shanks each have at least one barb extending from the shank for anchoring the fish hook to the live bait, wherein the barbs are adapted to prevent rotation of the body about the longitudinal axis relative to the live bait.

A fishing system for fishing in a center console or smaller fishing boat in the big or rough seas is provided. The fishing system may include a teaser rigger mounted to the fishing boat, wherein a teaser release line is received through at least two pulleys and operatively associating a teaser to a boom. The fishing system may separately or in combination include a leader saver connected to a fishing rod in the fishing boat. The fishing system may separately or in combination include a non-skid material of fighting chair frictionally engaging a flat surface provided in the fishing boat.

A slip bobber assembly for preventing bobber obstruction of rod guides includes a float, a ring and a clip. The ring is coupled to a first end of the float and defines a loop. The ring is configured to insert a line through the loop. The clip is coupled to a second end of the float and is configured to reversibly couple to the line. The clip is configured to fixedly position the float on the line so that a hook that is coupled to the line is positioned at a desired depth in a body of water. The clip is configured to decouple from the line upon a strike by a fish on the hook. The line is positioned to slide within the loop so that the float is prevented from obstructing guides on a fishing rod that is coupled to the line.

An aerodynamic fishing assistant is disclosed. The fishing assistant comprises a float with an opening. The fishing assistant further comprises a shaft having a first end and a second end, wherein the second end is configured to slidably positioned into the opening of the float from a bottom portion and affixed to a top portion of the float by a fastening assembly comprises a cupped washer, a bead, and an eyelet. The float further comprises a weight member adhesively bonded on the bottom portion of the float. A lead line with a hook securely affixed to the eyelet at the top portion of the float using a swivel and a clip, thereby accurately casting the float and the lead line with the hook out to a target destination into the water for fishing and prevents the lead line from being tangled to a fishing rig by spinning of the float.

A crimp sleeve for joining a loop of a fishing leader is disclosed. The crimp sleeve consists of an outer compressible and permanently deformable layer which is hard and resistant, and an inner softer layer, which conforms to the leader upon application. The multi-layered structure of the crimp sleeve allows for secure fixation without the risk of breakage or slippage of the connection. The main application of the crimp sleeve is primarily for fishing leaders having a looped end, but can be applied to other areas where two or more sections of wire or line need to be secured to each other by crimping.
