Abstract
The present disclosure provides an improved fish fighting apparatus that can be used by youth anglers, such as children, to assist in the capture of fish. The fish fighting apparatus includes a base frame having a plurality of vertical supports extending upwardly therefrom, an upper frame attached to the vertical supports and positioned above the base frame, a seat attached to the base frame, where the base frame, the upper frame, the vertical support, and the seat together define a seating area, a rod holder attached to the base frame and forming a pair of longitudinally spaced-apart openings between the base frame and the upper frame, and a mounting assembly attached to an underside of the seat and configured for mounting on a gunwale of a fishing vessel.
Claims22
An apparatus for fighting fish, comprising:
- a base frame comprising a vertical support extending upwardly therefrom,
- an upper frame attached to the vertical support and positioned above the base frame, the upper frame comprising a front railing, a back railing, and a pair of side railings, wherein the front railing, the back railing, and the pair of side railings are integrally formed with one another to form a continuous perimeter,
- a seat attached to the base frame, wherein the base frame, the upper frame, the vertical support, and the seat together define a seating area, and
- a tubular member having a proximal end attached to the base frame and a distal end extending outwardly below the upper frame, wherein the proximal end is disposed within a perimeter of the base frame and the distal end is disposed outside the perimeter of the upper frame, and the tubular member forms a pair of openings between the base frame and the upper frame.
