ABSTRACT:
A fishing rod apparatus including a rod pivotally attached to a handle. Battery powered oscillating apparatus contained within the handle, controlled by a thumb switch on the fishing rod handle, imparts an oscillating motion to the rod about the pivot point of attachment. The oscillating apparatus includes an electromagnet which, in combination with a magnet attached to the base of the rod, attracts and repels the rod as power is supplied to the electromagnet. When the thumb switch is closed, power is supplied to the electromagnet through an impulse circuit breaker connected in series with the electromagnet. The circuit breaker is opened and closed by the oscillating movement of the rod to establish an intermittent supply of power to the electromagnet to continuously oscillate the rod for purposes of jig fishing. In an alternative embodiment, a solid-state electronic pulsing unit of a predetermined pulse rate controls the power to the electromagnet.
