20080258392 | Game simulating the catching of fish by plug casting - A fishing apparatus comprising a flat, essentially vertical game board, a fish support mounted behind the game board, one or more flat, relatively thin fish-shaped members releasably mounted on the fish support, each fish-shaped member having a tapered mouth at on end thereof and a circular snare opening connecting to the mouth through a guide slot, a casting line, a plug adapted to be connected to the end of the casting line so that the plug and line can be cast over the fish-shaped members, each plug being made of resilient material and being provided with a nose piece adjacent to the connection of the line to the plug, the nose piece being receivable in the snare opening, the game board having a gap therein which is in alignment with the guide slot in the fish-shaped member, the gap in the game board being associated with a plurality of doors which are mounted on hinge axes for swinging movement when a fish-shaped member is pulled against the doors, whereby, when the plug is pulled into the circular snare opening and the line is pulled thereafter, the fish-shaped member will spring out through the hinged doors in a manner simulating the catching of fish in actual water. | 10-23-2008 |
20090278316 | ILLUMINATED GAME - On aspect of the present invention comprises an illuminated game having a base having a receiving member; a first member removably received within a receiving member; a third member removably received within a different receiving member. The third member oriented substantially perpendicular to the first member. A second member secured to the first member and the third member. A fourth member secured to the first member and the third member. The fourth member disposed downwardly from the third member. A fifth member secured to the first member and the third member. The fifth member disposed downwardly from the fourth member, each member being transparent. An illumination device disposed within at least one the members. | 11-12-2009 |
20090278317 | Golf toss game - An advanced golf toss game that is interesting and more challenging for the entire family includes at least two stands with each stand having a base for disposition on the ground and a vertically extending frame that includes two spaced-apart upright members with at least two curved step-like target bars extending between and attached to the upright members with one target bar being the lower target and one target being the upper target. Each step-like target bar includes two horizontal tubular sections or bars joined by a vertically extending bar to form the curvilinear shape and each bar has a point value associated with it so that two players—or teams of players—can toss in alternating turns stringed pairs of golf balls at the opposite upper and lower targets within the frame in an attempt to hook and wrap their teams stringed golf ball pairs onto the bars for accumulating points to win the game. | 11-12-2009 |
20100013161 | GAME IMITATING THE CATCHING OF FISH BY PLUG CASTING - A fishing apparatus for simulating the catching of fish is taught herein. A preferred embodiment comprises a horizontal fish support, one or more fish-shaped members releasably mounted on the fish support, each fish-shaped member having a tapered mouth extending in front of the fish's mouth and a line slot that terminates in a patch of hook and loop material. A cast plug will carry a mating patch of the same material so that when the plug is drawn toward the user through the guide slot, the plug will engage the fish-shaped member, thereby pulling it away from the fish support in a manner simulating the catching of fish in actual water. | 01-21-2010 |
