A combined fishing rod and fishing line vibrator includes a housing of plastic material defined by a pair of body halves maintained in tubular alignment by interengaged pins and bores to form a tubular body having axially opposite first and second ends closed by first and second caps. A radial shoulder in the first cap defines an eccentric-receiving chamber housing a weight carried eccentrically by a shaft of an electric motor housed between the first radial shoulder and a second radial shoulder defining an electric motor-receiving chamber adjacent batteries within a battery chamber, the second cap having electrical connection means for energizing the electric motor, and a fishing line loop carried by the tubular body whereby when the vibrator is connected to a fishing rod, the latter is vibrated directly through vibrations caused by the eccentric weight and the fishing line is vibrated through the fishing line loop.
A combined fishing rod and fishing line vibrator comprising a housing defined by a tubular body having axially opposite open first and second ends, first and second caps closing said respective first and second ends, a pair of radial shoulders within said tubular body adjacent said first end, an eccentric-receiving chamber between said first cap and a first of said radial shoulders, an electric motor-receiving chamber between said radial shoulders, an electric motor in said electric motor-receiving chamber, a rotatable shaft projecting from said electric motor toward said first cap and supporting a weight eccentrically mounted and unbalanced with respect to the rotational axis of said shaft housed within said eccentric-receiving chamber, said second cap defining with said electric motor a battery-receiving chamber, electric switch means carried by said second cap for electrical connection to said electric motor, a fishing line loop fixedly secured to said tubular body for receiving a fishing line therein, and means for connecting said housing to a fishing rod whereby the rotating eccentric weight creates vibrations transferred directly to said rod through said connecting means and to a fishing line through said fishing line loop.
