ABSTRACT:
A fishing bobber comprises a water tight air chamber having an guide tube passing therethrough. A slide tube slides back and forth within the guide tube. A housing extends downwardly from the air chamber, and the housing has an open bottom end. The lower end of an elongate slide tube is attached to a circular reel member that has a recessed groove circumscribing its perimeter. The reel member is of a size that when the slide tube slides downwardly, the reel member moves out of the lower end of the housing to a position spaced below the open, bottom end of the housing. When the slide tube slides upwardly, the reel member moves into the open end of the housing. A fishing line is attached to the bobber, and a leader portion of the fishing line that extends from the bobber. The leader portion can be wrapped around the recessed groove of the reel member. The hook and bait is placed in the housing, and the reel member is then moved into the open end of the housing to retain the hook and bait securely in the housing as the bobber is being cast over a body of water. Upon landing in the water, the bobber floats in an upright position, and the reel member moves out of the open end of the housing so that the hook and bait are released into the water.
