11553702 · 2023-01-17 · ·

A fishing line threader passes a fishing line through guide rings of fishing line guides installed in a fishing rod. The fishing line threader is composed of a single metallic wire material and has a fishing line pinching portion, an elastic portion and a leading end portion. First and second pinching portions of the fishing line pinching portion connect with each other at a first end portion and form an annular shape to fit and support the fishing line. The elastic portion forms a rhombus shape and has first and second elastic portions respectively extending from the first and second pinching portions. First and second leading end portions of the leading end portion extend respectively from the first and second elastic portions to a second end portion and are adjacent to each other. The first and second leading end portions are joined to each other by a joining portion.

Fishing tackle casting device mounts to fishing rod for casting fishing lure including housing having a groove, and a trigger mechanism including a U-shaped rod. The fishing tackle casting device mounts to the handle or fishing pole of the fishing rod. The fishing rod includes a line reel having line drawn from a line reel along the fishing pole. Line includes a fishing lure that locks to U-shaped rod through a groove causing the fishing pole to bend and store energy. The fishing pole may direct toward targeted area and the trigger mechanism actuation releases the fishing lure from U-shaped rod through the groove causing tension release of bent fishing pole, making fishing lure and line travel to targeted area. The trigger mechanism includes trigger support mechanism for connecting line from the line reel and helps control speed/release of tension on the line when the fishing lure is cast.

Steerable Fishing Lure
20170280699 · 2017-10-05 ·

In described embodiments, a method of redirecting a track of a fishing lure on a fishing line. The fishing lure has a body, a fishing lure longitudinal axis extending along a length of the body, a line tie extending outwardly from the body, and a re-positioning mechanism mounted entirely inside the body and connected to the line tie. The re-positioning mechanism is activated by the fishing line. The method includes the steps of using a fishing pole, casting the fishing lure into a body of water; while the fishing lure is in the water, reeling in the fishing lure; and moving the line tie between a first position and a second position such that only the movement of the line tie between the first position and the second position changes a direction of travel of the fishing lure while the lure is being reeled in.
