ABSTRACT:
A Balance Handle includes two types of handle grips, A type having braided rope approximately five and one-half inches long inserted and centered within a length of comparable diameter tubular nylon webbing and B type, a commonly available product consisting of approximately six inch length of heavy rubber tubing inserted and centered within a length of comparable tubular nylon webbing covered with a molded, non-marking rubber sleeve. Two case clamps are stainless steel worm gear clamps, each cut to a length slightly longer than the diameter of a tubular fishing rod case and sheathed in comparably sized tubular nylon webbing of a length approximately one inch shorter than the diameter of the tubular fishing rod case. Both A type and B type handle grip ends are void of rope or tubing and thus flat, enabling them to be cut to a length at least long enough to fit under, up, and over the worm gear housing of the case clamp. Each end of both A type and B type handle grip is squarely melted forming a small T shape. Each end of either A type or B type handle grip is fitted under a case clamp, each of which encircles the tubular fishing case, and this assembly—the Balance Handle—is positioned over the tubular fishing rod case weight fulcrum and secured in place by tightening the actual worm gear.
