ABSTRACT:
The butt of a deep-sea fishing rod is adapted to be manually held by a fisherman while the fisherman is standing near the rail, transom or bow of a fishing boat. Then, when the fisherman becomes tired, he telescopes the butt into a reel-raising rod-lengthening extender socket in nonrotatable relationship, following which he sits down in a fishing chair and inserts the lower end of the extender socket into the chair gimbal. The construction of the butt and the extender socket are such that even large axial forces directed downwardly toward the bucket harness as the fisherman grips the rod between the reel and the tip while fighting a fish, does not shorten the combination of the butt and extender socket. The reel is thus maintained at the proper elevated condition for fighting a fish while the fisherman is seated, and additional leverage is created whereby the fisherman is better able to fight the fish, and the overall rod length is increased sufficiently to allow the fishing line to clear the gunwale of the boat.
