ABSTRACT:
A fishing bobber includes a preformed generally egg-shaped hollow shell having a generally semispherical-shaped top and a generally conical-shaped bottom. The top and bottom of the egg-shaped shell include diametrically opposed apertures, and an elongated flexible tubular member extends longitudinally through the apertures and the shell. The tubular member has a first end which includes a peripheral flange extending radially therefrom for engaging the top of the shell and a second end projecting beyond the bottom of the shell. The diameters of the apertures are slightly smaller than the outside diameters of the tubular member to form compression joints between the tubular member and the apertures to provide a sealed hollow compartment within the shell. A line is slidable through the hollow tubular member. The second end of the tubular member includes a line guide and provides a fulcrum for self-righting the shell with minimum weight attached to the line.
