ABSTRACT:
A fishing jigger has a main body with two vertical panels mounted on a pair of relatively long, transverse supports, a rod holder extending along the top of the two main panels is pivoted to the panels at one end. An electric operating system for the rod holder includes a crank, a rod mounted on the crank and extending upwardly between two pivoting guides to a cam at the top end of the rod. A cam follower on the bottom of the rod holder is engaged by the cam. When the crank is rotated by an electric motor, the drive linkage produces a slow upward movement of the rod holder and a quick descent. The jigger may be operated by a remote control unit, using power from an automobile battery. The jigger may also include a hook setting feature which is an electrical bypass of the motor speed control to produce a fast upwards movement of the rod holder to set a hook when a nibble or bite is detected.
