Abstract
The fishing rod holder with strike indicator is a free-standing fishing strike indicating device. The fishing rod holder with strike indicator is a stand which holds the fishing rod. The fishing rod holder with strike indicator allows for the adjustment of the cant between the fishing rod and the ground. The adjustment of the cant allows for the adjustment of the angle of attack between the fishing line and the water. The fishing rod holder with strike indicator comprises a tripod, a pedestal, and a control circuit. The pedestal mounts on the tripod. The control circuit is contained within the tripod. The tripod is a supporting structure that adjusts the elevation of the pedestal relative to the ground. The fishing rod mounts on the pedestal. The control circuit detects when a fish has struck the fishing line and generates a visible alarm and an audible alarm.
