AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Conventional long-distance casting baskets lose bait prematurely due to their open top or side configuration, and attached bait is often eaten before reaching the target depth.

Method used

A long-distance casting basket with a sliding lid incorporating weights and a float, designed to prevent the lid from opening until it reaches the water surface, ensuring bait retention until the desired depth, and then release bait and lure at the target depth using the float's buoyancy.

Benefits of technology

The design effectively retains bait until the target depth and ensures controlled release at the desired underwater location, enhancing fishing efficiency.

Abstract

To provide a long-distance casting basket capable of preventing many baits from coming out of the long-distance casting basket until the long-distance casting basket reaches a target underwater depth by casting the long-distance casting basket and releasing the baits and attached baits into water at the target underwater depth.SOLUTION: This long-distance casting basket has a slidable lid 5 in which a weight B6 and a float 7 are incorporated. When the long-distance throwing basket with the lid 5 is thrown and dropped on the sea surface, the lid 5 is opened or not opened, but in both cases, the bait sinks first from the A2 part of the case and many baits do not come out of the lid 5 until the bait reaches the target underwater depth. Thereafter, when the fishing rod is scooped up, the lid 5 is opened by the buoyancy of the float 7 in the lid 5 of the long-distance casting basket to provide the long-distance casting basket having a structure for releasing the bait and the attached bait into water.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a long-distance fishing cage that releases bait at a desired underwater depth in fishing. [Background technology]

[0002] This type of long-distance casting cage is available in an upwardly or laterally open configuration. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0003] Conventional long-distance casting baskets have an open top or side, so much of the bait escapes into the water before reaching the target depth. Also, the attached bait sometimes gets eaten. We create a long-distance casting basket that does not let much bait escape until it reaches the target depth. [Means for solving the problem]

[0004] Make a long-distance casting basket with a sliding lid 5 incorporating weight B6 and float 7. When fishing, weight B6 inside lid 5 prevents lid 5 from opening until the long-distance casting basket is thrown and falls to the surface of the sea. When it falls to the surface of the sea, the impact may or may not cause lid 5 to open, but in both cases, case A2 with weight A3 sinks first, preventing most of the bait from coming out of lid 5. After reaching the desired underwater depth, when the fishing rod is reeled in, the long-distance casting basket floats and sinks, but the buoyancy of float 7 inside lid 5 causes lid 5 to open upward away from case A2, releasing the bait and attached bait downward and sideways. A long-distance casting basket with this structure is made.

[0005] A space is provided at the portion where the notches of the case A2 and the lid 5 of the long-distance casting cage are joined, so that the baited line can be stored inside the lid 5. [Effects of the Invention]

[0006] The long-distance casting cage of the present invention can prevent most of the bait from coming out of the long-distance casting cage until it reaches the targeted underwater depth, and can release the bait and lure at the targeted underwater depth. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[Figure 3] This is a cross-sectional view of the long-distance throwing basket taken along the line B-B. [Figure 4] This is a front view of the long-distance basket when it is open. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0008] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Weight A3 and plate 4 are placed in case A2, and basket string A8 is passed through the horizontal hole in case A2 from the outside, and plate 4 is also passed through and tied on the inside. Then, both ends of basket string A8 are inserted into plate 4, and weight A3 and case A2 are passed through. Conversely, SUS wire 1 without a loop on the top is inserted into case A2, weight A3 and plate 4, and both ends of basket string A8 are passed through the loop of SUS wire 1 and tied. Weight B6 and float 7 are placed in lid 5, and basket string B9 is passed through lid 5 and tied to prevent the contents from flying out. This is passed through the SUS wire 1, and a loop is created on the top side of SUS wire 1, creating a long-distance casting basket. A space is provided at the joining portion of the case A2 of the long-distance casting cage and the notch of the lid 5, so that a baited line can be stored in the lid 5.

[0009] An example of the use of the present invention will be given. In preparation for fishing, grasp the case A2 of the long-distance casting basket, turn it upside down and lower the lid 5 to open the long-distance casting basket. In this state, place the bait and bait-on-hook into the lid 5. When adding bait-on-hook, place it so that the line is in the notch in the lid 5. Next, lift the lid 5 to close the long-distance casting basket, but at this time, align the notch in the lid 5 with the notch in the case A2 so as not to catch the line. After casting, weight B6 inside lid 5 prevents lid 5 from opening until the basket hits the surface of the water. When the basket hits the surface of the water, lid 5 may or may not open due to the impact, depending on the angle of fall, but in both cases, case A2, which incorporates weight A3, sinks first. Most of the bait remains inside lid 5 until it reaches the desired underwater depth. When the cast basket reaches the desired depth, the angler confirms by using a float on the surface of the water, then reels in the fishing rod and impacts the fishing line 10. This causes the basket to float via the balance 11 and then sink. At this point, the buoyancy of the float 7 inside lid 5 slows its sinking, causing it to separate from case A2 and slide upward along the SUS wire 1, releasing the bait and lure inside it sideways and downwards. As a derivative effect of the present invention, since the long-distance casting basket has a built-in float 7, the float on the surface of the water can be small in size compared to the weight of the entire long-distance casting basket, which is advantageous for long-distance casting.

Claims

1. Case A2, weight A3, and plate 4, through which stainless steel wire 1 with rings attached at both the top and bottom ends is passed, are fixed on top of the lower ring of the stainless steel wire 1. The long-distance casting basket, which has a structure that allows it to slide above the stainless steel wire 1, is made by incorporating weight B6 and float 7 into lid 5.

2. A space is provided in the area where the case A2 of the long-distance casting cage and the notch of the lid 5 are joined, so that the baited line can be stored in the lid 5.
