| 043170100 | Electric current or sonic wave energy | 9 |
| 20090007480 | Fishing Lure - A fishing lure including an illumination means; a body having walls defining a water tight cavity; a power source and a control circuit within the cavity connected to the illumination means. The control circuit controlling the supply of power to the illumination means such that light is emitted from the illumination means. The fishing lure is controllable via a remote control which can be used to select various operating modes such that the lure can produce any desired color, or pattern of colors, to emulate the body of a bait fish. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20090025270 | ELECTROSHOCK WAND FOR AQUATIC CREATURES - An electroshock wand for safely and humanely stunning and capturing aquatic creatures is provided. The electroshock wand has a body, an anode member, and a cathode member. The anode and cathode members are attached at or near the electroshock end of the body, with the anode and cathode members being axially spaced from one another. The anode and cathode members create an intense and localized electrical field between one another that momentarily stuns a target organism. The target organism, once stunned may then be collected. This device offers a nonlethal method of capturing invasive species and removing them from specific environments. | 01-29-2009 |
| 20100005700 | ROBOTIC FISHING LURE - A remote radio controlled robotic fishing lure device replicates bait animals in size, shape, movement and sound. A remote control signals a radio receiver inside the lure to activate a simple magnetic actuator to activate simulated bait animal extremity movement and/or sound. | 01-14-2010 |
| 20110030265 | Fishing Lure - An electronic fishing lure that closes a circuit upon being submerged in water such that two distinct phases of operation are triggered. The first phase immediately begins once sensor pins protruding from the fishing lure casing detect that the fishing lure is submerged in water. This phase emits electronic impulse energy in a waveform that simulates an initial injury to a wounded living thing. The second phase then begins, which relates to a motor calibrated to cause vibrations that simulate the resulting distress and escape attempt of a living thing. The phases serve to attract predatory aquatic creatures toward the fishing lure. | 02-10-2011 |
| 20110219662 | Electric Shock Fishing Lure Apparatus - An electric shock fishing lure apparatus includes a main housing body portion defining an interior area. A battery is positioned in the interior area. A conductive switch shaft is electrically connected to the battery and is situated in a distal end of the main body portion and movable between an extended configuration in which the switch shaft is energized by electrical current from the battery and a retracted configuration in which the switch shaft is not energized by current from the battery. A spring is coupled to the switch shaft and to the distal end of the housing for biasing the switch shaft toward the retracted configuration. A hook member is situated outside the interior area of the main housing body portion and operatively coupled to an outside end of the switch shaft, the electrically conductive hook member being energized when the switch shaft is at the extended configuration. | 09-15-2011 |
| 20120005940 | FISHING LURE HAVING RECORDED BAIT SOUND PLAYBACK MODULE - An electronic sound module in a fishing lure in the water is activated by a fisherman on the shore to broadcast a pre-recorded actual or simulated sound of a bait creature. In a preferred embodiment, a motion sensor in the sound module activates the sound chip and micro speaker when the fisherman tugs on the line, a water sensing automatic on-off switch turns the power on and off, and the battery is charged by an external charging coil. An alternate embodiment remote radio controlled robotic fishing lure device replicates bait animals in size, shape, movement and sound. | 01-12-2012 |
| 20130036653 | Systems and Methods for the Handling for Aquatic Species - An inventive device for the handling and affecting the physiological state of an aquatic species with a pair of gloves, a multiplicity of electrodes, and a pulsator attached to the electrodes, so that when the pulsator is activated the current, alters the physiological state of the aquatic species. | 02-14-2013 |
| 20130139428 | COUPLING ELEMENTS OF DISSIMILAR GALVANIC POTENTIAL TO ALTER BEHAVIOR OF ELECTRO-SENSITIVE ORGANISMS - Devices and methods are disclosed for using materials with dissimilar galvanic potentials for altering the behavior of electro-sensitive organisms. This includes devices for mitigating elasmobranch bycatch in commercial and recreational fisheries. | 06-06-2013 |
| 20160007581 | Fishing Lure For Implementing A Fishing Contest | 01-14-2016 |
