ABSTRACT:
An elongated buoyant body portion has a slot in the lower end thereof which tapers upwardly to a narrowed dimension. This lower portion of the body includes a guide passageway for a fish line in an arrangement such that when the body portion is disposed in a normal horizontal floating position, the fish line which extends through the slot and over a guide edge in the guide path is freely movable through the bobber but when the bobber is disposed in an upright floating position, such as when it is under the influence of opposed pulling forces, the fish line is gripped by the slot and stopped. The structure of the bobber allows for controlled movement of the line therethrough to position a hook at a desired hanging distance from the bobber and also to release the bobber from the line when a fish strikes.
