Fishing and Angling Accessories with the Uclamp

Uclamp for Angling and Fishing Accessories

The uClamp with or without the extension pole can be attached to almost any form of portable chair with one clamp arm, whilst the other will securely hold the fishing rod and acts as an economical alternative to the tripod. Being a fraction of the size, it is lightweight, will not rust, is adaptable and easy to store/carry. The uClamp will allow the user to position a fishing rod at any desired angle without it having to have contact with the ground. For ‘all weather’ anglers, the uClamp is also extremely useful as an umbrella holder. Unlike the conventional Angler’s umbrella which is placed on the ground and is rested on the sides of its canopy, and only provides partial shelter from the rain, the uClamp will make even a standard umbrella work better. By attaching the uClamp to the most suitable frame section a portable chair, an umbrella can be angled in such a way as to provide complete over-head coverage for the user.

How Does It Work

Each uClamp set comprises two clamps that work independently of each other. Both clamps are held together by spindle and two tightening knobs, one at each end. Each tightening knob controls the ‘clamping’ pressure of the clamp nearest to it. The uClamp will allow two completely different sized/shaped poles (or the frame of your portable chair) to be attached to each other at whatever angle one chooses, around a 360 arc. The extension pole has ‘two sets’ of uClamps attached to it at either end. The extension pole is attached to the handle-bar section. An umbrella (its size is the choice of the user) is fixed to the uClamp at the other end of the pole. Both uClamps allow 360 degree rotation. Rotate pole with bottom uClamp until vertical position is found, then rotate umbrella with top uClamp for fine positioning. Tighten both uClamps to maintain position. Height adjustments can be made by repositioning either one or both uClamps along the length of the extension pole. If used without extension pole Attach one Clamp section of the mp to the frame section of the portable chair (legs, arms or back-support section), and the other to the umbrella. Once the desired angle has been found, generally a vertical position, lock the uClamp into place by tightening the two turn wheels/knobs on both ends of the device.
