ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a simple fish stringer having a reclosable fastener. The invention enables persons fishing to conveniently store freshly caught fish while keeping them alive in the water, and facilitates carrying them later. The stringer involves a rod of spring metal having two ends, formed so as to define a generally triangular shape, the ends being fastenable to each other to close the triangle. Preferably, the triangular shape is defined by a first leg, leading to an integral second leg, leading in turn to an integral third leg, the first and second legs and the second and third legs being at angles of generally less than about 45 degrees with respect to each other. Preferably, the ends are fastenable to each other by virtue of a catch formed in one end, preferably the free end of the first leg, the other end preferably being pointed. The spring metal acts to urge the first leg away from the second leg against the end of the third leg to engage the catch. Preferably, there is an integral spring loop formed between the first and second legs.
