ABSTRACT:
A conventional fish attracting device (i.e. a conventional lure or bait) is attached to a submersible unit. The submersible unit is attached to an electronic unit on a fishing rod by means of an optical cable. The submersible unit measures the amount of tension exerted by the fish attracting device (including the tension exerted by a fish pulling on the fish attracting device). The submersible unit also detects the aquatic conditions in the vicinity of the fish attracting device. The submersible unit transmits the tension exerted by the fish attracting device and the aquatic conditions to the unit on the fishing rod. The unit on the fishing rod determines if the tension exerted by the fish attracting device indicates that a "strike" has occurred and if the tension is nearing the tensile strength of the line. When a strike occurs the aquatic conditions are recorded along with the position of the strike. When the tension on the line nears the tensile strength of the fishing line (i.e. the tensile strength of the optical cable), the tension on the line is released.
