'UP1 When fishing enthusiast Samuel Mantell drops his line into the 1 water the poor fish haven't a i chance. The 63-year-old angler, who I likes to invent things in his ' spare time, has put together a de ; vice which practically guaran ; tees that a fish once it bites won't get away. His invention, for which he is ; seeking a patent, is an 18-inch aluminum strip adaptable to a . fishing pole equipped with a j hook-setting gadget and a device i to prevent a line from snapping ! under tension. It also is equipped ! with a plunger and spring attach- ment which acts as a shock ab I sorber when a fish is hooked. ! 'This prevents the line from j breaking under great weight or when you get jerks from the : end of the line." explained Man , lell. "You also get enough lee ; way so that w hen you reel in. ! the pole won't be jerked out of I your hand by a fish.", i The hook-setter is fixed to snap back instantly once a fish bites. It can be set for different degrees of sensitivity. "This is important in itself." said the fishing expert. "Often the fish gets on and off the hook before the fisherman can do any thing.''
