Abstract: A packing device for organizing objects with cords attached includes a tube and a pulling assembly operatively coupled to the tube. The pulling assembly is adapted to pull the cords inside the tube to avoid tangling and assist managing the objects. The pulling assembly includes a pulling string with a puller attached at one end and a fastener attached at the other end. The fastener attaches the cords to the pulling assembly. The fastener can be attached to different position on the string to accommodate cords of different lengths. The puller is pulled and then placed in a locked position. The puller can be a different fastener that is attached to an anchor of the tube in the locked position. Alternatively, the puller moves in a track incorporated in the tube. The track can further incorporate a lip for locking the puller in position.

Abstract: A long line fishing apparatus comprises a reel, a support member, guide means and hook retaining means. The reel includes a core connected between a first flange and second flange, for winding or unwinding a fishing line thereon said core between the first and second flanges. The reel is attached to the support member and the guide means is attached to the support member. Hook retaining means is formed as at least one slot in the first flange so that at least one hook attached to the fishing line can be retained in at least one slot. Movement of the position of the reel away from an end of the fishing line causes the reel to rotate in a horizontal plane to cause the fishing line to be deployed through the guide means or to be able to be rewound back on the reel through the guide means without tangling.
