Abstract:
A fishing reel system, comprising:a fishing pole;a reel housing having an interior space, said reel housing being coupled to said fishing pole;a reel positioned substantially in said interior space;a motor positioned in said interior space, said motor being operationally coupled to said reel for turning said reel upon activation of said motor;a power source for selectively providing power to said motor;a main power switch extending from said housing, said main power switch being operationally coupled to said power source for providing power to said motor when said main power switch is in a closed position;an operation switch coupled to said housing, said operation switch being operationally coupled to said motor and said main power switch for selectively activating said motor when said main power switch is in a closed position, said operational switch having an on position for activating said motor, an off position for deactivating said motor, and a jigging position; andan oscillator and a one-shot multi-vibrator operationally coupled to said operation switch for periodically activating said motor when said operation switch is in said jigging position whereby said reel provides periodic incremental reeling of said fishing line when said operation switch is in said jigging position.
