Benefits of technology

Enables efficient deployment and retrieval of teasers, secure handling of long leaders, and safe fish reeling, minimizing line breakage and enhancing safety for fishermen on smaller boats.

Problems solved by technology

It is not easy to deploy teasers on a smaller or center console fishing boat because most teaser rigging devices are made for larger fishing boats.
As a result, current teasers riggings are too large for smaller boats and so with or without current teaser riggings the teaser cannot be easily deployed to the optimum distance outside the boat prop wash.
Another consequence of being without teaser rigging is that the teasers are not easily retrievable.
Additionally, many boat fishermen have struggled with properly securing longer leaders to their rods and reels, whether it is a trolling rig, a longer leader for tackle shy fish, employing a dipsy or jet diver or a plain old grouper rig.
As a result, long leaders or fishing line may become compromised and break, and so dependent equipment such as sinkers, dipsy or jets may fly off and break.
Currently, compromised lines are either cut off and retied later or wound about the equipment and so are unsecured at the top of the fishing rod.
By cutting off your line, however, you waste time and money.
And, as just mentioned, when compromised from wear and tear of unsecured equipment, the line can break causing the equipment to come loose, be broken, lost or become a safety concern as it flies off the line.
Furthermore, when boat fishing and fighting big fish, especially in the big or rough seas, a stand-up fighting harness can jeopardize the fisherman's safety.
Current seated harness solutions, unfortunately, are geared for one specific platform or seat, and so they are not completely universal and portable.

Abstract

A fishing system for fishing in a center console or smaller fishing boat in the big or rough seas is provided. The fishing system may include a teaser rigger mounted to the fishing boat, wherein a teaser release line is received through at least two pulleys and operatively associating a teaser to a boom. The fishing system may separately or in combination include a leader saver connected to a fishing rod in the fishing boat. The fishing system may separately or in combination include a non-skid material of fighting chair frictionally engaging a flat surface provided in the fishing boat.

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of priority of U.S. provisional application number 62 / 714,975, filed 6 Aug. 2018, and the application claims the benefit of priority of U.S. nonprovisional application Ser. No. 16 / 528,036, filed 31 Jul. 2019, as a divisional thereof, the contents of both are herein incorporated by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to fishing equipment and, more particularly, to a teaser rigger, a leader saver, and a fighting board.[0003]It is not easy to deploy teasers on a smaller or center console fishing boat because most teaser rigging devices are made for larger fishing boats. As a result, current teasers riggings are too large for smaller boats and so with or without current teaser riggings the teaser cannot be easily deployed to the optimum distance outside the boat prop wash.
