Abstract: A harvesting mechanism for a fishing device includes an actuator, a wireless receiver for receiving a wireless signal to control the actuator, and a rope securing mechanism mechanically coupled to the actuator. The rope securing mechanism secures a rope. In response to receiving the wireless signal, the wireless receiver activates the actuator to cause the rope securing mechanism to release the rope.

Abstract: A fishing device includes a net disposed in a body of water containing fishes and a post installed near a perimeter of the net. The post further includes a stem, a cord, and a weight. A portion of the stem is above a surface of the body of water, and the cord is slidably secured to the stem. A first end of the cord is attached to the weight, and a second end of the cord is attached to the net. The weight is configured to move from a first position to a second position upon receiving wireless communication, and the first position is higher than the second position.

Abstract: A rope releasing apparatus includes an actuator, a wireless receiver for receiving a wireless signal to control the actuator, and a rope securing mechanism mechanically coupled to the actuator. The rope securing mechanism secures a rope. The rope is attached to a fishing net. In response to receiving the wireless signal, the wireless receiver activates the actuator to cause the rope securing mechanism to release the rope.

Abstract: A fishing device includes a net disposed in a body of water containing fishes. A plurality of posts, wherein each post further includes a stem, a bottom cross disposed at a lower portion of the stem; a cross bar disposed at a top end of the stem; and a cord. The stem is an upright elongated protrusion extending from under a bottom to above a surface of the body of water. The cord is slidably secured to the cross bar. A first end of the cord is secured to a weight. A second end of the cord is secured to the net. The fishing device includes a release mechanism. The release mechanism grabs a portion of the cord to hold the weight in a first position adjacent to the cross bar. A bait system is disposed at or adjacent to a center of the net.
