Abstract:
A fish calling device for attracting predatory fishes by mimicking all sensory characteristics of a prey including appearance, sound and smell is disclosed. The device is configured to spray water into a waterbody around the device in a circular or a semi-circular pattern, thereby mimicking the appearance of a group of bait fishes. The water is sprayed to create the sound of a bait fish trying to escape from the predatory fishes when sprayed onto the waterbody. A scent bag is attached to the sprayer for dispersing/dispensing a smell through the water sprayer thereby mimicking the smell of a bait fish. Thus the device activates three senses of the predatory fishes including sight, hearing and smell for attracting them while fishing/competition.

Claim (Index 1):
A fish calling device comprising:\n a main body; a sprayer configured for spraying water to a waterbody around the main body for attracting predatory fishes during fishing/competition by mimicking sensory characteristics of bait fishes to activate the sensory characteristics of the predatory fishes, and wherein the sensory characteristics include an appearance, a sound and a smell, and wherein the sprayer comprises a nozzle configured for spraying the water into the waterbody, and wherein the sprayer is configured to rotate in one of a clockwise direction and a counter-clockwise direction while spraying water into the waterbody for creating a pattern; a pump configured for pushing water to the sprayer, and wherein the pump comprises a strainer for filtering the water pushed to the sprayer; a pipe connected to the pipe and configured to transfer the water from the pump to the sprayer, and wherein the pump is connected to one end of the pipe and wherein the sprayer is connected to the other end of the pipe; a float configured for enabling the main body to float on the waterbody when used off-shore, and wherein the float is attached to and detached from (removably attached to) the main body; a retainer ring configured for attaching the float to the main body, and wherein the retainer ring is placed at the middle of the pipe along a length or longitudinal direction of the pipe; and a base configured for attaching the main body to a dock, a boat or a shoreline when the fish calling device is used from in-shore, and wherein the pump is attached on top of the base.
