Abstract

A novel “Y” shaped fishing rod support for a novel semi-automatic fishing is comprised of, including but not limited to, an anchoring pole, a straight means of partially cut-out metal pipe consisting the upper part of the fishing rod support, a fishing rod holder guide, a fishing rod holder pivotally engaged in between the “Y” shaped cleavage that is formed between the upper part of the fishing rod support and the fishing rod holder guide, a spring which connects the fishing rod holder and the vertical upper part of the fishing rod support, and an electric trigger operated by a fisherman. The lower part of the straightening means is constructed of a narrow metal pipe. The upper part of the straightening means is constructed of a metal pipe, which is larger in diameter than the metal pipe consisting the lower part of the straightening means. An anchoring pole, which has a sharp bottom tip for anchoring the “Y” shaped fishing rod support to the soft soil around a lake or to rocks on a water shore. An “L” shaped clamp is pivotally attached to the lower Part of the straightening means for attaching the fishing rod support to a porch. The upper portion of the metal pipe is a hemi-pipe, to eable to receive the fishing rod holder. The lower portion is a whole pipe A pin, that is attached to the out side of the fishing rod holder, is engaged to an electric trigger, located at the outer bottom of the rod holder support. The trigger is actuated by the decision of the fisher to avoid unnecessary hooking.

Dependent claims

A novel “Y” shaped personal fishing rod support for semi-automatic fishing, which is comprised of:

1) an anchoring pole having sharp bottom tip;
2) a straight means of partially cut-out metal pipe consisting the upper part of the fishing rod support;
3) another straight means of metal pipe consisting the lower part of the fishing rod support, which has a diameter larger than that of the anchoring pole but smaller than that of the metal pipe consisting the upper part of the fishing rod support;
4) a fishing rod holder guide, in a shape of a straight hemi-pipe, attached to the upper part of the fishing rod support with an inclined angle by welding it to the lower bottom portion of the cut-out part of the upper part of the fishing rod support;
5) a fishing rod holder pivotally engaged in between the “Y” shaped cleavage that is formed between the upper part of the fishing rod support and the fishing rod holder guide;
6) a spring which connects the fishing rod holder and the vertical upper part of the fishing rod support;
7) a protector made of a transparent flexible plastic material, which covers both sides of the “Y” shape cleavage;
8) an electric trigger comprised of a case, a metal ribbon, one end of which is fixed to the inside of the case and the other end is tensionally connected to a permanent magnet by a wire, a ribbon spring;
9) a trigger pin attached to the outer surface of the fishing rod holder pointing to the trigger;
and 10) an actuator comprised of an electromagnet, which is connected to an outer power source, at the bottom of the actuator, a permanent magnet rod slidably inserted in the actuator body and connected to the metal ribbon by a metal wire.
