Abstract
A device for indicating the pull of a fish on a line including an adjustably biased activator, such as an electrical contact which can be separated by a non-conductive portion of a fishing line. A pull on the line removes the line from the contact which closes due to the bias and completes an electrical circuit. The circuit includes an audible or visual alarm, or both. The device can be small and lightweight, and fitted directly to a fishing rod, a rod support or other convenient support structure.
