Abstract:
A multiple fishing line apparatus which comprises an upper frame and a lower frame, both upper and lower frames substantially in a horizontal position having a central post extended therebetween. There would be further provided a plurality of outer arm members extending between the lower and upper frames, with a joint centrally located down the length of each arm so that movement of the frames toward one another will allow the arms to expand at the joints outwardly to an open, flared position. There is further provided a plurality of fishing lines extending between the upper and lower frames, each of said fishing lines having a plurality of hook members secured thereto. Upon sliding movement of the upper and lower frames toward one another, and the outer arms radiating outwardly at their center joints, the fishing lines would be secured so that the lines would radiate out with the arms to provide an extended apparatus with the fishing lines positioned throughout the radial area of the expanded frame for attracting a number of fish. Upon retrieval of the apparatus, the upper frame would move upward, withdrawing the extended arms to their vertical position and the apparatus would be raised out of the water and the unextended position with the fish secured to the individual hooks.
