ABSTRACT:
An electrical fish stunning assembly is disclosed having an elongated cylinder tapered at the ends and connected to a fishing line at one end, and an insulated leader wire and partially insulated hook extends from the other end of the assembly. A dry cell storage battery is arranged to supply electricity to a high voltage booster. A strong spring biases a movable contact to an open position against the pull of the leader wire, whereby closure of the contact points closes a circuit that allows a surge of the stored high voltage electricity to surge thru the leader and hook rendering the fish unconscious. This will enable fishermen all over the world to boat more fish and reduce chances of injury to the fisherman, while at the same time providing a better grade of fish flesh to the market place.
