  • Fishing line holder and fishing rod tip guard
    Patent number: 4765083
    Abstract: A fishing line holder which cuts a fishing line removing a fishing lure and engages the fishing line leading to the rod and reel. The fishing line holder also forms a cavity so that when the fishing line is reeled in, the tip of the fishing rod is accepted into the fishing line holder so that the tip of the rod is protected. In this position, the fishing line is also held tight so that it will not become entangled during storage.
