Abstract: A chart for locating guides on a fishing rod comprising a plurality of side by side lanes each having a vertical portion and in a predetermined plane and arcuate lane portions of different radii and curved through an arc of about ninety degrees (90°) from said predetermined plane and a plurality of radially directed marker lines emanating from a common center and intersecting the arcuate lane portion which defines the optimum locating points for guides for the fishing rod.

Abstract: An apparatus for weaving patterns comprising pattern threads and wrapping threads around an object having a central axis comprising an elongated slide tube and at least two side wheel assemblies, one of said side wheel assemblies mounted on said slide tube and the other of said side wheel assembly mounted on said object and spaced axially therefrom a distance greater than the axial extent of the pattern to be weaved; each of said side wheel assemblies having a thread wheel with a series of radially directed circumferentially spaced slots and a number ring having number indicia means which are axially aligned relative to one another and which correspond to pattern thread lines on a chart for a pattern; means for securing the pattern threads at one end to said object and engaging each of the threads in a numbered slot in one of the side wheel assemblies which may be selectively withdrawn from the slot in said one side wheel assembly and inserted into a corresponding number in said other side wheel assembly duri

Abstract: A device for rotating the shack of a fishhook about its axis comprising a mandrel rotatable about a predetermined axis of rotation, a base which includes means for rotatably mounting said mandrel, a first shaft extension, and means for pivotally mounting said first shaft extension on one end of said mandrel, said first shaft extension having a shaft axis which intersects the axis of rotation of said mandrel and is repositionable relative thereto clamping means mounted on an outer end of said first shaft extension comprising jaws for gripping said fishhook a rotatable cam have a spiral cam surface which engage confronting spherical surfaces on the confronting interfaces of the jaws whereby rotation of said cam in one direction causes the jaws to close and rotation of cam element in the opposition element causes the tips of the jaws to open.
