摘要 |
The disclosure herein describes a portable knockdown fishing rig which includes a base (12), a fishing rod support (14), a flag and staff (22) having its lower end mounted to the base (12) and its upper end adapted, in a flexed condition, to be loosely engaged to a line responsive triggering mechanism (16) also mounted to the support. A pulling force exerted on the fishing line causes the triggering mechanism to release the flag staff (22) thus indicating the catch of a fish. In one embodiment, the upper part (52, 54) of the support (14) is so shaped as to oppose tilting of the entire fishing rig when an important pulling force is exerted. |
