Abstract:

A fishing signal apparatus utilizes a detachable clamping mechanism which may be affixed at selected locations along the length of a hand-held type fishing rod and reel. The clamping mechanism has a spring wire affixed thereto. The other end of the spring wire is configured to prohibit a bell mechanism from accidental disengagement with the spring wire. The bell mechanism may be adjusted to clampingly reside at selected locations along the length of the spring wire. By adjusting the location of the clamping mechanism and the location of the bell mechanism, wave and wind action can be eliminated as a means of ringing the bell, while minor non-biting forces, acting on the fishing tackle, can also be disregarded.
