ABSTRACT:
A fishing rod is disclosed as comprising a handle having a rod portion extending from one end thereof. The extended end of the rod portion is provided with a movable electrical contact which carries a fishing line. The contact is responsive to the presence of a fish on the line for closing an electrical circuit which, in turn, is adapted to actuate a signaling device disposed in the handle of the fishing rod to indicate to the fisherman when a fish is tampering, or otherwise biting, the bait at the end of the fishing line.
