Embodiment Construction

[0021]The present invention has been designed as a tool through which a fisherman can catch, subdue and then release a fish that has been brought to the side of a boat in a way that prevents serious injury or death to both the fish and crewmen on the boat.

[0022]The present invention also provides a safe method of grasping and holding onto the tail of a large game fish without exposing crewmen to the dangers they presently encounter when lassoing a game fish's tail.

[0023]The invention consists of:

[0024](a) a Pole of from six (6) feet to ten (10) feet in length (No. 1 in Photos 1 and 7);

[0025](b) a round, hollow, steel, Quick Release Snap fitting that is secured to the end of the Pole (No. 2 in Photos 1 and 7);

[0026](c) a steel rod or “Shank” containing a Bend in the Shank that turns the end of the Shank in a one hundred and eighty degree) (180° direction (No. 3 in Photos 1, 2, 4, 5 and 7), the long end of which contains two (2) machined slots into which two O-Rings have been inserted wh

Abstract

Fishermen use gaffs to spear, hold and land large fish. This is dangerous when done from a boat and always kills the fish. A gaff consists of a u-shaped steel bar (“shank”) with one end attached to a pole and the opposite end containing a sharp point. The invention, similar to existing gaffs, but designed to hold a fish without harming it, has a blunt end, rather than a point. Instead of spearing fish, it uses two steel, spring activated, one-way gates, that span the opening between the sides of the shank. They open and then close when pulled or pushed across the part of the fish's body to which the tail attaches, making it impossible for the fish to pull its tail free from the space between the closed gates and the curve in the bend of the shank. The fish is then held without harm.
