ABSTRACT:
A bobber which facilitates casting of a fishing line with a substantial portion of the line extended beyond the bobber, includes a spool around which the extended length of line is wound preparatory to a cast, and a float which shifts between cocked and release positions on the spool. When the float is in the cocked position, the extended portion of line remains and is held wound around the spool. When the float moves to the release position, the line pays off of the spool. The line is cast with the float in its cocked position, but when the bobber strikes the water, the float, owing to its buoyancy, shifts to its release position and the extended portion of line pays off of the spool, allowing a hook and bait on the end of the line to descend to a depth best suited for fishing.
