ABSTRACT:
A fishing bobber for releasable attachment to fishing line comprising a forward and a rearward portion forming a buoyant member with an elongated staff on a forward end and an aerodynamic fairing on a rearward end with all elements aligned along a longitudinal axis. There is present an integral weight cast into the forward portion. Both portions and the weight are cast from similar material in a common mold. The bobber is provided with weight and an aerodynamic form to promote casting distance. The bobber assumes a horizontal position upon the surface of the water and is capable of accepting metallic lures of minimal weight while remaining in a horizontal attitude on the water, thereby maintaining a high degree of sensitivity inherent in a fishing bobber of elongated design.
