Abstract
A novel reel handle for deep-sea fishing reel and rod employs a grip with a cord, preferably a conventional soft shackle, that connects the grip and reel loops at least one time, to be secured. The tubular grip may include a battery to power a processor, memory, clock, UV radiation, torque, accelerometer, and other sensors. It has sensors to monitor torsion on the reel, trigger a sensor, track the line tension, location, and time landing the fish and provide maps of the location vs. any measured physical property during a fishing trip.
Claims20
A novel reel handle system for manipulating and carrying a commercial fishing reel having reel loops connected to a fishing rod comprising:
- a. a curved tubular grip approximately the width of the commercial fishing reel having in internal passageway;b. a high tensile strength cord that exhibits superior resistance to UV rays, mold, and salt corrosion, passes through the internal passageway of the tubular grip, through the reel loops of the fishing reel and is secured in the tubular grip.
A novel reel handle system for manipulating and carrying a commercial fishing reel having reel loops connected to a fishing rod comprising:
- a. a curved grip approximately the width of the commercial fishing reel;
- b. a high tensile strength cord that exhibits superior resistance to UV rays, mold, and salt corrosion, that connects the grip, through the reel loops at each end of the grip to secure it to the reel.
A method of carrying and locating a commercial fishing reel having reel loops, comprising the steps of:
- a. coupling a grip to the reel loops with a high tensile strength cord that exhibits superior resistance to UV rays, mold, and salt corrosion;
- b. mount a power source on the grip;
- c. mount a GPS device on the grip and connect it to the power source;
- d. attach a conventional communications device to the GPS device, capable of transmitting the location of the GPS device,
- e. tracking the location of the reel with a device that can receive the transmission of the conventional communications device.
