An improved fish hook with two eyelets to be used for fishing. A primary eyelet located at the top of the fish hook and a secondary eyelet located at the bottom. The primary eyelet would generally be affixed to a fishing lure or line while the secondary eyelet could have various appendages attached by split ring and or swivels, much like a vehicle with a trailer hitch can connect to various trailers. Attached appendages would consist of but not be limited to metal or synthetic blades commonly referred to as “Willow Leaf”, “Colorado” and “Indiana” forms, additional fishing hooks or hook, fishing line, barbed shafts or shaft and various plastic imitation baits such as crawfish, grubs, worms and minnows.

The “Cast-Away Bobber” has an operation similar to other slip bobbers but it's make-up and performance are uniquely different. It has a hollow vertical tube through the center with a tubular pierced glass bead through which the fishing line is feed which won't wear out over extended usage. The two piece bonded float assembly has a make up of a closed cell light weight plastic foam for the upper section and a heavier foam rubber base for the bottom section, both sections are bonded together and then coated with several applications of different plastic dip paint for greater visibility and giving the bobber years of performance even if it's accidentally stepped on. The heavier foam rubber base gives the bobber a natural weight for a longer and more accurate cast even in windy conditions. The heavier base also gives the “Cast-Away Bobber” a somewhat angular position when floating in the water without adding additional weight or a sinker, however it is recommended to add a 0.4 oz (ounce) fishing weight to bring it to the total vertical position in the water and lighter weights for the smaller diameter bobbers The diameter of the “Cast-Away Bobber” varies from ¾″ (inch) diameter to 1¼″ (inch) diameter (as shown and submitted) in increments of ⅛″ and up to 2″ (inch) diameter bobber which is strictly used for musky and northern fishing (in fresh water lakes) and is able to hold a live minnow at a fixed depth without being pulled under as with the smaller diameter bobbers The 2″ diameter bobbers needs no sinker to make it stand upright in the water.

In a boat that was not designed for or required a live well, a built-in tank, for the holding of newly caught fish, a portable tank will serve as a live well that will hold fish that are caught and a bait well that would receive minnows or leaches. An electric pump powered by a battery of the boat or portable battery pumps water from the lake into the tank to fill, aerate and circulate the water in the tank. An electric pump powered by a battery of the boat or portable battery pumps water out of the tank and provides for overflow. A series of three valves control the water intake, water overflow and re-circulation of water in the tank. These operations are controlled by the open or closed combinations of the three valves. The majority of the live well is to receive newly caught fish with the smaller portion of the live well to serve as the holder for live bait. Aerated water filters throughout the entire live well.

A fishing jig with a flexible shank allows a minnow on the fishing jig to swim free. This natural movement of the minnow entices a predator to feed while foraging. Predators not foraging are enticed into a reaction strike with the use of various types of terminal tackle, such as colored beads, blade spinners, turbo spinners and the like. The fish hooks and the jig head can be matched to meet the fishing conditions and type of fish being targeted. For example, a heavier jig head can be used with a smaller fishing hook for fishing smaller fish in deep water.

A fishing lure is provided which is adapted to simulate the behavior of a minnow at rest. Specifically, the new and improved fishing lure described herein is equipped with a pedestal on its bottom, whereby the pedestal is adapted to make contact with a bottom surface at a single contact point. The single contact point is aligned with the lure's center of balance, such that when the lure rests on the bottom surface it has a tendency to remain balanced on the single contact point. This allows the lure to be wobbled by the water turbulence, thereby imitating the behavior of a minnow at rest.
