ABSTRACT:
Improvements in automatic fishhook setting devices. An automated fishhook tackle system comprising a fishing line, a hooking device and a fishhook setting device. The fishhook setting device includes a cylindrical housing with a barrel and a bore extending therethrough, and upper and lower caps. The bore contains a plunger and a compression-type coil spring. The plunger includes a shaft and upper and lower ends. The shaft of the plunger extends through the coil spring which is positioned within the bore between the lower cap of the housing and an overhanging lip formed by the upper end of the plunger. The shaft further includes a notch defining an upwardly directed abutment surface. The plunger may be drawn from the housing so as to compress the spring. When the notch is advanced out of the housing the plunger is advanced to one side of the housing so that the abutment surface may be placed in contact with an edge of an opening in the lower cap of the housing to prevent the plunger from retracting until an additional force is applied to the plunger, preferably from a fish taking a baited hook secured thereto. The device can be removably attached to a single length of fishing line.
