ABSTRACT:
A fishing line holding spool is designed to be mounted in a fishing rod holder on a boat and retains a length of fishing line between a fishing rod and a line release clip positioned below the spool. When a fish strikes the bait, the line is released from the clip and the additional fishing line automatically comes off the spool so as to allow the fish to eat the bait before the line becomes taunt. The device is designed to prevent the premature setting of a fish hook before a fish has adequately swallowed the bait. An audible signal may also be utilized to indicate that a fish has struck the line. In a modified embodiment of the invention, the line holding spool is mounted in a stationary manner to a support pole and a lever-adjusted clamping device is utilized to position the spool in any desired angular relationship relative to the support pole. A tension adjustable line clip is attachable to the support pole and facilitates the preselecting of release pressure for the line in response to a fish striking the bait.
