Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
The device includes a tube for holding a fishing rod, which pivots to an at-rest position under the action of a main spring. The tube is held in an atready position by a latch. The latch is tripped by a tug on the fishing line. A safety-catch is automatically cocked, when the fisherman sets the tube, to a position where the safety catch blocks the latch, and prevents the latch from tripping. This enables the latch to be set automatically also when the fisherman sets the tube The safety catch is released by hand when the device has been fully prepared and adjusted.

Why it's free to use
- Filed March 11, 1994. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended March 11, 2014.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by March 11, 2016.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
