Benefits of technology

[0008] A main object of the present invention is to provide a snag-free and stress-free fish catcher, which provides a tension resting bed for the fish lying thereon in a tension manner, thereby preventing the snagging of the fish appendage in the fish catcher.
[0009] Another object of the present invention is to provide a snag-free and stress-free fish catcher, wherein the tension resting bed provides a tension surface having a predetermined tension larger than a weight of the fish such that the fish is flatted to lie on the tension resting bed to prevent the fish from being stretched or bent within the fish catcher.
[0010] Another object of the present invention is to provide a snag-free and stress-free fish catcher, which has a rigid, simple, and strong structure to evenly distribute and support a downward force of the weight of the fish on the tension resting bed.
[0011] Another object of the present invention is to provide a snag-free and stress-free fish catcher, wherein the tension resting bed has a plurality of pores formed thereon for water permeation to enhance the maneuverability of the fish catcher without snagging of the fish appendage in the fish catcher.
[0012] Another object of the present invention is to provide a snag-free and stress-free fish catcher, wherein no expensive or complicated structure is required to employ in the present invention in order to achieve the above mentioned objects. Therefore, the present invention successfully provides an economic and efficient solution not only for providing the tension resting bed for the fish to lie thereon in a flatted manner so as to prevent the snagging of the fish appendage but also for facilitating the practical use of the fish catcher.

Problems solved by technology

However, the conventional fish net has several drawbacks.
Therefore, the stretch of the fish may hurt its own body or even kill itself.
However, fish scales, fish fins, or other fish appendages may be ensnared or entangled in the pores of the net body.
When the fish is released from the fish net, the fish scales, fish fins, or other fish appendages ensnared or entangled in the pores will accidentally scrape off from the fish body.
However, the smaller pore will prohibit the flow of water though the net body and reduce the maneuverability of the fish net when submerged in the water.
Therefore, the conventional fish net is impractical for capturing the fish in a live and healthy condition.

Embodiment Construction

[0022] Referring to FIG. 1 of the drawings, a snag-free and stress-free fish catcher according to a first preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, wherein the snag-free and stress free fish catcher comprises a supporting frame 10 comprising a boundary rim 11 and a fish pocket 20, which is affixed to the boundary rim 11, having an opening 21 defined within the boundary rim 11 and a fish cavity 22 communicating with the opening 21.

[0023] The snag-free and stress-free catcher further comprises a tension resting bed 30, having a tension surface 31, supported within the fish cavity 22, wherein the tension surface 31 of the tension resting bed 30 has a predetermined tension larger than a weight of the fish. Therefore, when the fish is captured within the fish cavity 22 of the fish pocket 20, the fish lies on the tension surface 31 of the tension resting bed 30 in a flatten manner.

[0024] According to the preferred embodiment, the supporting frame 10 is made of rigid ...

Abstract

A snag-free and stress-free fish catcher includes a supporting frame, a fish pocket, having a fish cavity, supported by the supporting frame, and a tension resting bed, having a tension surface, supported within the fish cavity, wherein the tension surface of the tension resting bed has a predetermined tension larger than a weight of the fish. Therefore, when the fish is captured within the fish cavity of the fish pocket, the fish lies on the tension surface of the tension resting bed in a flatten manner.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE OF RELATED APPLICATION [0001] This is a divisional application that claims the benefit of priority under 35 U.S.C.§119 to a non-provisional application, application Ser. No. 10 / 704,309, filed Nov. 10, 2003.BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of Invention [0003] The present invention relates to a fish net, and more particularly to a snag-free and stress-free fish catcher, which provides a tension resting bed for the fish lying thereon in a tension manner so as to prevent the fish from being stretched and the scale being damaged. Furthermore, this resting bed will provide a stress-free catch. This stress free attribute is a key element in keeping the fish healthy. [0004] 2. Description of Related Arts [0005] A conventional fish net comprises a bounding frame and a net body supported by the bounding frame defining a fishing catching cavity and an opening within the boundary frame to communicate with the fish catching cavity, such that the fish is adapted...
