Abstract
This invention relates to an improved yard casting assembly having a game target assembly and a casting lure assembly connectable to a fishing line on a casting rod and reel assembly for casting outwardly to engage the game target assembly. The game target assembly can resemble fish structures, an octopus, wild animals, or other structures of various shapes and includes a main base assembly having a lure connector member connected thereto. The casting lure assembly is provided with a main lure body member having a lure skirt member connected thereto. The main lure body member is provided with an intermediate target connector section having a slot portion operable to receive and hold the lure connector member of the game target assembly therein in a successful casting operation.
Claims16
An improved yard casting assembly operable with a casting rod and reel assembly having a fishing line, comprising:
- a) a game target assembly having a lure connector member mounted thereon and projected forwardly therefrom;
- b) a casting lure assembly connectable to the fishing line and engagable with said lure connector member in a locking action;
- c) said casting lure assembly includes a main lure body member having a lure skirt member mounted thereon;
- d) said main lure body member includes a forward line connector section integral with a target connector section which, in turn, is integral with a skirt connector section;
- and
- e) said target connector section includes a slot portion to receive said lure connector member therein in a locked condition on retrieving the fishing line, said casting lure assembly, and said game target assembly.
- whereby a game operator of the casting rod and reel assembly can retrieve the fishing line and interconnected said casting lure assembly so as to engage said lure connector member and move said game target assembly to the game operator to simulate a fish catching operation.
An improved yard casting assembly operable with a casting rod and reel assembly having a fishing line, comprising:
- a game target assembly having a lure connector member mounted thereon and projected forwardly therefrom;
- b) a casting lure assembly connectable to the fishing line and engagable with said lure connector member in a locking action;
- c) said lure connector member having a hook section of J-shape;
- and
- d) said casting lure assembly includes a main lure body member having a target connector section with a slot portion operable to receive said hook section therein in a locked condition when retrieving said game target assembly;
- whereby a game operator of the casting rod and reel assembly can retrieve the fishing line and interconnected said casting lure assembly so as to engage said lure connector member and move said game target assembly to the game operator to simulate a fish catching operation.
An improved yard casting assembly operable with a casting rod and reel assembly having a fishing line in order to improve fishing skills of a game operator, comprising:
- a) a game target assembly having 1) a main body member resembling an outline of an octopus structure;
- 2) a plurality of support legs connected to and extended laterally of the octopus structure;
- and 3) a lure connector member connected to each of said support legs;
- b) a casting lure assembly connectable to the fishing line including a main lure body member with a forward connector section integral with a target connector section;
- and
- c) said target connector section having a slot portion operable to receive a respective one of said lure connector members therein in a locking action during a casting and retrieving operation.
An improved yard casting assembly operable with a casting rod and reel assembly having a fishing line in order to improve fishing skills of a game operator, comprising:
- a) a game target assembly having a main body member;
- b) said main body member including a plurality of lure connector members each having a hook section of J-shape;
- and
- c) a casting lure assembly connectable to the fishing line and operable to be cast by the game operator using the casting rod and reel assembly and engaged with a respective one of said lure connector members;
- whereby the game operator casts said casting lure assembly toward said game target assembly in order to place the fishing line within the confines of one of said lure connector members and retrieves the fishing line to place and lock said casting lure assembly within said lure connector member so that said game target assembly can be retrieved to the game operator similar to a fish catching operation.
An improved yard casting assembly operable with a casting rod and reel assembly having a fishing line, comprising:
- a) a game target assembly including a main base assembly having a lure connector member mounted thereon and projected therefrom;
- and
- b) said lure connector member includes a hook section being of J-shape and having an open "A" portion to allow the fishing line to move longitudinally and laterally of said lure connector member;
- c) said hook section including a connector portion secured to said main base assembly and integral with a circular lure connector portion;
- and
- d) said open portion located between said connector portion and said lure connector portion.
