Abstract: A beam is mounted horizontally for rotative oscillation, preferably across the stern of a boat. The beam is adapted to carry a plurality of rod-holding receptacles oriented transversely to the beam. The beam has a radius arm engaged by an eccentric driven by a gearmotor resulting in the up-down movement of the rod as the beam is rotatively oscillated. This movement of the rods takes place in a vertical plane parallel to the centerline of the boat, and the arrangement permits the lateral separation of the rods necessary to eliminate any overlay of the fishing lines which would be likely to cause them to become entangled. The crank and radius arm mechanism provides an enhanced rod movement, with the rods moving upwardly and downwardly at different rates of speed, which produces enhanced lure movement through the water. This action is adjustable.
