Abstract: The present invention relates to a shackle. The shackle comprises a shackle body for use with a shackle pin. The shackle body comprises a flexible elongate member comprising at least one length of rope circuitously formed so that the flexible elongate member passes through itself and defines three sequentially adjacent noose portions. Three sequentially adjacent noose portions comprise an intermediate noose portion and two end noose portions at opposing ends of the shackle body.

Abstract: A fastener device adapted for attaching at least one tag (or other identifier) to an object. The fastener device comprises a T-bar component, a paddle component, and a filament component flexibly attached to both the T-bar component on one end and the paddle component on the other end. In some embodiments, the fastener device is deployable via a fastener dispensing device comprising a needle designed to puncture a hole in at least one tag and the object while also inserting the T-bar component through the hole. Once inserted, the paddle component exerts a cantilever spring force against at least one tag holding the tag(s) securely against the object.

Abstract: A flexible cascade unit for cascading electrical elements and device thereof are provided. The cascade unit includes a first series connection portion, a second series connection portion and a flexible structure. The flexible structure is integrally formed between the first and second series connection portions, and has a first flexible rib and a second flexible rib. Each of the first and second flexible ribs respectively clads a conducting wire. Each conducting wire has two conducting ends respectively extended to the first and second series connection portions. As such, a flexible strip-like object can be formed, and be attached at an arm, waist or wrist of a person to be readily portable and wearable.

Abstract: A method-and apparatus for attracting fish using a sound producing fishing accessory the mimics the sound of a fish's prey. The apparatus provides blind positive engagement of a hook and a sound producing device embedded with an artificial bait. A fisherman is able to positively engage the sound producing device to the hook by feel alone. The sound producing device is designed and adapted to guide a hook into positive engagement therewith.

Abstract: The shur-lock snap for easier and faster method of connecting tackle products to and from the fishing line, a straight arm connecting to a proximate arm, the proximate arm furthermore connected to an opposite arm where the distal end of the opposite arm is at least once wrapped loosely indirectly surrounding the straight arm. The lure is slid over the open end of the opposite arm down the wound wire eventually resting on the proximate arm.
