Product Idea
Casting Trigger is an intuitive and easy to use device that you attach to your fishing pole, allowing you to cast a line farther than ever before, without the risk of injury. No need to wear uncomfortable gloves, develop calluses or to otherwise protect your fingers while fishing.
The device mimics the natural motion of pinching a line to the underside of your fishing pole. With one hand, place the line across the hook, and, using the other hand, squeeze the trigger to hold the line. Swing the pole back as you normally would to cast, and as you cast, release the trigger as you would normally release the line to cast.
We realized that most similar designs are home-made contraptions and have an ugly attachment method – basically just using zip ties or tape to fix to the pole. Others were un-natural to use – such as having to cast using your thumb – while others required a certain amount of line tension to cast – making them impractical.
The Casting Trigger is made of high quality, high density engineering grade thermoplastic – allowing it withstand both freshwater and saltwater environments, and the stressess of casting a line with heavy weights, yet being light weight enough to not affect the casting motion or adding weight to the pole. The Casting Trigger can accommodate virtually any diameter of fishing pole.
You can fix the Casting Trigger to your fishing pole many ways such as using tape, zip ties, or the included velcro strap.
