ABSTRACT:
A fishing lure retriever for use in freeing a fishing lure caught on an underwater obstruction has a weighted body connected to a cable which is attached to a reel driven by gears and electric motor. The reel, gears and motor are enclosed in a housing equipped with a cleat for securing the cable. The enclosure also has a hand grip surface for a secure grip. The weighted body is attached to the fishing line, and can slide freely along the line to the lure. The weighted body has short chains attached to it. The reel unwinds the cable to lower the weighted body to the lure. The weighted body strikes the lure, dislodging it from the underwater obstruction, or the chains are made to catch on the hooks attached to the lure. The cable is then secured to the cleat on the enclosure; the combination is then manually pulled to tear the lure loose by brute force.
