ABSTRACT:
An arm rest for use with a fishing pole supports a user's forearm while fishing and broadly comprises a mount adapted to releasably attach to the butt end portion of the fishing pole and a forearm cradle. The forearm cradle is pivotally disposed on the mount and is operative to move between a stowed position wherein the forearm cradle extends along a longitudinal axis of the fishing pole and a deployed position wherein the forearm cradle extends at an angle relative to the longitudinal axis to elevate the user's forearm above the butt end portion. A selectively actuable locking mechanism engagedly retains the forearm cradle in the stowed position and disengages from the forearm cradle to permit the forearm cradle to pivot between the stowed and deployed positions. A finger slide actuates the locking mechanism between the locked and unlocked positions. A spring may also be interconnected between the forearm cradle and the mount to resiliently urge the forearm cradle into the deployed position. A fishing pole is also provided which incorporates an arm rest having these features.
