ABSTRACT:
A fishing alarm which is simple, economical to fabricate, and rugged includes an injection molded housing with a battery and alarms mounted in the housing. The battery, alarm, electrical interconnect, and switch actuator are readily mounted in the housing. The switch includes a planar member with two conductive layers on one major surface. A rotatable pin extends through the planar member with a wiper blade fastened to one end of the pin in contact with one conductive layer and rotatable into contact with the other conductive layer. A lever is attached to the other end of the pin and extends through the housing. A fishing line engages the lever and the pull on the line rotates the pin and wiper blade to actuate the alarm. A manually operable screw engages the pin or planar member to establish drag on the switch.
