What is claimed as new and what is desired to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is: 1. A method for launching bait attached to a fishing line of a fishing pole in space limited area, said method comprising the steps of: a. providing a base assembly linearly adjustable along a first axis; b. pivotally coupling a platform to a top end of said base assembly by articulating said platform about a fulcrum axis registered orthogonal to said first axis; c. directly connecting a plurality of arms to said platform by extending said arms upwardly therefrom; d. anchoring opposed ends of a sling to said arms in such a manner that said sling is resiliently adapted between stretched and equilibrium positions when pulled rearwardly from said arms and along a path registered substantially orthogonal to said first axis; e. pivotally coupling a mounting clamp directly to said base assembly by articulating said mounting clamp about a second axis registered orthogonal to said first axis; f. attaching said mounting clamp to a support surface; g. positioning the fishing rod alongside said sling; h. pointing said sling to a desired direction; i. placing a baited hook in said sling; j. pulling said sling rearwardly away from an interior side of said platform until a desired tension in said sling is achieved; and k. releasing said sling to launch the baited hook. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein step a. comprises the steps of: centrally aligning first and second tubular female shafts along the first axis, interfitting a rectilinear male shaft within said first and second female shafts by statically nesting a top end of said male shaft within said first tubular female shaft; penetrating a drive rod of a rotatable knob through said male shaft; and linearly displacing said second female shaft along said first axis by rotating said knob along first and second rotational directions respectively. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein step b. comprises the step of: pivotally coupling a bracket of said platform directly to said first female shaft. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein step e. comprises the steps of: pivotally connecting a C-shaped housing pivotally to a bottom end of said second female shaft; rotatably engaging a fastener with said housing and said second female shaft in such a manner that said housing is adjustably locked at alternate positions defined along an arcuate path extending about said bottom end of said second female shaft; threadably penetrating a primary rod through a distal end of said housing by extending said primary rod along a rectilinear path defined between a proximal end and said distal end of said housing respectively; and passing an auxiliary rod through a distal end of said primary rod in such a manner that said auxiliary rod is disposed exterior of said housing. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein step d. comprises the steps of: seating a pouch substantially medially between said arms; directly connecting looped ends of said first and second deformably resilient elastic bands to top regions of said arms respectively; and statically engaging opposed ends of each of said first and second elastic bands with lateral sides of said pouch such that an equal tension is maintained between said first and second elastic bands when said pouch is pulled rearwardly behind said arms during launching procedures.
