  • Patent number: 4698933
    Abstract: A fish line release consisting of a pair of elongated jaw members interconnected at one end and having free ends movable between open and closed positions biased toward the closed position by a spring. Resilient fish line engaging pads affixed to the free ends releasably retain a fishing line and alignment projections formed on the jaw members assure alignment of the fishing line with the pads when "loading" the release and also restrain the jaw member free ends from relative lateral displacement. The pads are attached to the jaw members by adhesive which is received within recesses which aid in interlocking and bonding the adhesive to the jaw members, and the jaw members include stops which prevent overstressing the spring when squeezing the jaw members to the open position.
