ABSTRACT:
Devices for supporting a fishing rod with a hook adapted to signal the user when a fish bites a hook comprising a rectangular support box. The box has a battery positioned therein. A support assembly is provided comprising a generally C-shaped rearward support component and a U-shaped forward support component. The U-shaped component is located above the C-shaped component whereby when a fishing rod is located in contact with the C-shaped and U-shaped support components, the rod will be maintained at a proper angular orientation for fishing. A crossbar supports the U-shaped support with a pair of springs attached to the box with their upper ends urging the crossbar and U-shaped component upwardly. An adjustable trigger is adapted to be contacted and depressed by a fishing rod supported in the support assembly when a fish bites the hook of the fishing rod. A horn is mounted adjacent to the box and operatively coupled with the battery and trigger and is adapted to be sounded upon the biting of the hook.
