Abstract: A modular fishing vest system combining the load capacity of a backpack with the advantages of a fishing vest is described. The modular fishing vest system typically includes a fishing vest with a first storage module removably coupled to a back side of the vest. The first storage module can resemble a backpack. The modular fishing vest system typically further includes shoulder straps installed inside the fishing vest in order to transfer load to a user's shoulders. The shoulder straps are typically removably coupled to an inside surface of the vest. The modular fishing vest system further includes second storage modules detachably installed on a front side of the vest. The second storage modules can include a shelf pocket that opens to provide a shelf approximately horizontally disposed, on which pocket contents or other items can be supported.

Abstract: The ball carrier has a case and a strap. The case has a chamber, a connecting seat, a locking seat and a frame. The chamber is spherical and formed in the case. The connecting seat is formed on the case and has a pivoting recess. The locking seat has a locking assembly corresponding to the pivoting recess of the connecting seat. The frame is mounted between and connecting the connecting seat and the locking seat and has two fencing boards and a door board. The two fencing boards and the door board are formed around and shaped the chamber of the case. The door board is connected pivotally on the pivoting recess of the connecting seat and connected detachably on the locking assembly of the locking seat. The strap is connected to the case and provides a carrying effect.

Abstract: A foldable, weather-resistant reference guide for wearing on the arm, torso, or leg. The foldable, weather-resistant reference guide is attached to a soft, flexible keeping member that holds the reference guide in a folded configuration. The keeping member is connected to or comprised of at least one flexible strap such as an elastic strap that encircles the arm, torso, or leg. The reference guide itself is made of a synthetic fiber paper for weather-resistance. The reference guide folds-up when not in use and is held in place by the keeping member so that the reference guide does not interfere with any physical activities such as snow skiing. The keeping member and reference guide can be opened, unfolded, refolded, and closed with only one hand, even while wearing bulky gloves. The entire invention is made of flexible materials that are comfortable, durable, and safe to a person wearing the article and participating in a rigorous physical activity. The reference guide is typically a map.

Abstract: This invention is a quiver for carrying sporting equipment or tools over the shoulder; it can be converted into a free-standing structure; and it can be disassembled when not in use for ease of storing and traveling. The quiver consists of a plurality of rigid tubes, with a means for holding the assembled tubes into a stable structure suspended from a shoulder strap. The quiver also allows peripheral equipment to be attached by such means as clips, hook-and-loop-type fasteners, hanging containers, and so forth. The shoulder strap is adjustable, for comfortable, hands-free carrying and for hanging the quiver from a chair, a hook, or other furnishing. Adding wheels allows the quiver to be rolled or carried. The quiver can also be converted into a stand which holds equipment off the ground. Further, after use, the quiver can easily be disassembled into individual protective casings for transport or shipping; when disassembled, the quiver components require less packing space.

Abstract: A multi-functional carrying device, including a strap with two ends which can be secured into loops, and a bag secured to the middle section of the strap. The bag is provided with a receiving element near its upper portion, which receiving element is capable of receiving the two ends of the strap, which strap then serves as shoulder straps for carrying the bag.
