A motor driven fishing reel is provided. The motor driven fishing reel can include a detachable battery pack configured to supply power to a motorized drive assembly within the motor driven fishing reel. The battery pack can include a power output adaptor that can be engaged with a power input adaptor on the motor driven fishing reel. Alternatively, the power input adaptor can accept power from an external source. The battery pack can include one or more protrusions to engage with one or more receiving channels on the motor driven fishing reel such that the battery pack can easily be attached and detached from the motor driven fishing reel.

Battery powered electric reel

A fishing spinning reel that eliminates problems associated with line twist by providing a rotor adapted for both forward and reverse rotation wherein a drag assembly applies drag to the rotor using an adjustable cam mechanism to prevent the rotor from imparting twist on the line when in the winding mode. By enabling the rotor to rotate in a reverse direction with the application of drag the present invention prevents line twist when fighting a fish by allowing the rotor to rotate in a reverse direction to let out line and/or to remain stationary as the handle is cranked thereby preventing the rotor from imparting twist on the line.

A portable bait tube system integrated into a compact, self-contained system that merely requires a simple electrical connection to function when submerged within a body of water. A submersible DC powered pump has a water inlet and a water outlet connected in fluid communication with an inlet of a manifold, the manifold further including a plurality of upwardly disposed outlets. A corresponding plurality of bait tubes are provided for removable connection to the corresponding manifold outlets. Each bait tube comprises an elongate, hollow structure defining a generally oval cross section. Upon activation, water is pumped upward through each bait tube and allowed to overflow from the top thereof for recirculation. As should be apparent, live baitfish are placed into each bait tube in a head down orientation whereby water entering the tube inlet flows through the bait's gills thereby maintaining the bait in a live condition.

A high-capacity pump fabricated with improved motor cooling and corrosion resistant components and powered by a variable-speed brushless DC motor suitable for use with a wide variety of applications. A brushless 12V DC motor is controlled by a manual and wireless variable speed control means to provide unparalleled flow control. The motor is contained within the housing in a sealed cavity in the housing, wherein the cavity is filled with mineral oil which maximizes heat transfer to facilitate motor cooling. A PVC impeller is contained within a PVC section of the housing thereby creating a corrosion resistant impeller section. The pump of the present invention has achieved improved performance over known pumps and is capable of delivering 4,500 gallons per hour (GPH) at 6 feet of head pressure, while only drawing 30 amps at 12 Volts DC. Wireless remote control of the pump is achieved via a wireless enabled device.

A variable speed motor driven fishing reel is powered by a brushless DC motor and adapted for remote control operation by adapting a salt water bait-casting reel with a motorized drive assembly including an end plate having an environmentally sealed cover removably connected thereto, and mounted on the opposite side of the reel from the manual crank, the drive assembly including a brushless DC out-runner motor having an output shaft connected to a planetary gear system configured to power rotation of the fishing reel spool axel for driving the spool. A power cable provides 12.0 volt DC power from a suitable on-board vessel power source. An electronic motor control system allows for variation of DC motor speed via a manually actuated speed control knob. A remote control device is adapted for wireless communication with the electronic motor control system to allow for remote activation of the DC motor in low and high speed modes.

A submersible camera housing specifically configured for use with a portable digital video camera includes a generally bullet-shaped main body having a top, a bottom, a forward end and an open rearward end, and a clear cover removably affixed to the rear end forming a watertight seal with the main body. A battery power source is removably disposed within a battery receiving cavity and electrically connected to a light. A video camera cavity is specifically sized and shaped for receiving a popular digital video camera snugly therein. The clear end cover is adapted for threaded engagement with the read end of the main body and includes an O-ring which forms a watertight seal between the cover and the main body thereby preventing water penetration into the housing interior.
