ABSTRACT:
A compact assembly of cast parts, in the main of cast aluminum, includes a base structure adapted to be rigidly attached in any desired relation on the stern or beam side of a trolling craft, said structure being multi-functional in that it integrally incorporates (a) an upright tubular support receiving the grip or butt end of the fisherman's rod for instantaneous removal and play when a strike occurs, and (b) an adjustable rigid mount for the usual outboard line pulley supporting rod of a more or less conventional down rigger unit. A hand-operated line spool of said unit is rotatably journaled on a side of the base casting; and further pursuant to the invention said casting has pivoted, on the same side thereof, a manually operated detenting latch member. This member is releasably engageable with any one of several studs or pins projecting laterally from an adjacent side of the down rigger unit's spool, thus to releasably lock the latter against further line pay-out rotation when the sinker weight or cannon ball of the unit has been lowered to the desired deep water trolling depth.
