ABSTRACT:
A fishing device used for trolling is shown which employs the force of water, to engage a propeller that turns a shaft engaging a cluster of gears. The gears alternately engage a worn shaft and a spool. The spool retrieves a cable, to which, is attached a spring loaded parachute that applies a resistive drag to the cable. This parachute incorporates a release mechanism to which a fish line is attached. The cable, while being retrieved on the spool, accelerate the lure attached to the fishline. The worm shaft engages a pawl, which is carried in a pawl retainer, which travels along the worm shafts axis thereby moving the spool, which is rotatably mounted on an axle type shaft mounted parallel to the worm shaft, away from the gear cluster. The spool has a cable attached to it and when the spool is engaged in the gear cluster the cable is wrapped around the spool and when it becomes disengaged the force of the water against the parachute, which is attached to the cable causes the cable to unwind. During the unwinding the fishing lure is suspended motionless and flutters, resembling a stunned baitfish. The device has a housing which is shaped like a fish and incorporates a prominent lateral line, appears to be a feeding predator. This apparent feeding scene as witnessed by other fish triggers the instinct of those fish to feed.
