AUTOMATIC FISHING DEVICE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an automatic fishing device for automatically catch a small-sized fish such as pond smelt. SOLUTION: A rotor 21 holding a magnet 22 is placed in a body case 1. The rotor is connected to a swinging motor 16. A swinging member 26 holding a magnet 28 is rotatably supported close to the rotor 21, a fishing rod 2 is connected to the swinging member and protruded from the front face of the body case 1, a reflection plate 3 is attached to the tip end of the fishing rod 2, a light sensor 8 is placed on the front face of the body case 1 opposite to the reflection plate 3 and a fishing line reel 10 is attached. The swinging motor 16 is intermittently stopped. The light sensor 8 is actuated in the stop stage of the motor with a timer circuit 40. When the fishing rod is vertically swung by the bite of fish in the active period of the light sensor 8 and the light reflected by the reflection plate 2 is detected by the light sensor 8, the fishing line reel 10 is rotated by a wind controlling circuit 41.
