ABSTRACT:
A fish bite detector assembly for attachment to a fishing pole. The assembly includes a battery powered electrical system to signal a fish bite activated by a magnetically controlled switch. The switch is normally open when in close proximity to a magnet. A compression clip operably connected to the magnet, grasps the fishing line forming an integral link between the magnet and the fish hook. A bite or disturbance of the hook causes the magnet to move away from the switch, thus, closing the switch contacts, energizing the electrical system, and activating an audible alarm.
