Fixture for tying fishing knots

摘要

A fixture for facilitating the tying of a given knot in a fishing line comprises a platform member providing a flat surface for mounting a plurality of assemblies. These assemblies include a spool assembly having a spool for respectively taking up or letting out line, a spool crank for rotating the spool in at least one direction, a spool frame for mounting the spool for rotation about a first axis of rotation, and a spool frame base for mounting the spool frame to the platform. A spinner assembly comprises a spinner base mounted to the platform and a spinner bidirectionally freely rotatably mounted to the spinner base for rotation about a second axis of rotation. The spool base and the spinner base are mounted in side-by-side relationship and spaced apart on the platform in such a manner as to align the first and second axes of rotation substantially at right angles to each other and the spool assembly and the spinner assembly are mounted to the platform and arranged thereupon in such a manner as to facilitate the tying of a given knot in a fishing line.
