ABSTRACT:
A downrigger fishing system is disclosed which includes a pair of coacting mounting arrangements. This system includes a frame assembly which rotatably supports a downrigger line reel, and a downrigger arm attached to the frame assembly for guiding the downrigger line. Not only may the downrigger system be mounted in a conventional fashion to a suitable downrigger mounting plate, but the system further includes an additional mounting arrangement so that the assembly may be readily and releasably secured to the oarlock of a rowboat or similar small craft. In this way, the downrigger system may be conveniently used for trolling in relatively shallow water or other places where relatively small craft are best suited.
