  • Patent number: 10034466
    Abstract: A device for assisting casting and retrieval of a fishing line to which is attached a terminal tackle. The device includes a guide ramp along which a carriage is slidable and a biasing element biasing the carriage towards the distal end of the guide ramp. A carriage pulling mechanism can be operated by a power drive to selectively pull the carriage away from the distal end of the guide ramp. A release mechanism can selectively disengage the carriage and carriage pulling mechanism from each other to allow the biasing element to propel the carriage along the ramp to cast the terminal tackle and fishing line.
