PCT No. PCT/SE90/00390 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 6, 1991 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 6, 1991 PCT Filed Jun. 6, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO90/14762 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 13, 1990.An fly fishing arrangement includes a rod and a reel, with a plurality of substantially aligned outer rod rings between the reel and the tip of the rod. A manually controllable line-blocking mechanism is mounted on the rod and includes a clamping member and a clamping surface, mounted on the rod outward from the reel. When the line-blocking mechanism is in a running position, the clamping member is substantially perpendicular to the rod to permit the line to run off of the rod freely and substantially without deflection; when it is in a blocking position, the line is clamped between the clamping member and the clamping surface. A control mechanism for switching the line-blocking mechanism between the running and blocking positions is located on the rod adjacent to the reel to allow actuation of the control means and thereby the line-blocking mechanism using a finger of the hand of the user's casting arm. A spring biases the control mechanism into the running position. A connecting device is provided for transmitting force from the control mechanism to the line-blocking mechanism. A plurality of intermediate rod rings are located on the rod between the reel and the clamping member. In one embodiment, the control mechanism is a pivoted tab; in another embodiment, it is a slide bar that is in the blocking position when the user pushes the slide bar into a casing mounted on the rod. |
