ABSTRACT:
A fishing device adapted for fishing adjacent the bottom of a body of water is disclosed comprising an elongated resilient wire with a float on one end and a sinker on the other. The wire extends through an aperture in the sinker and is releasably held thereto by a bend in the wire which binds in the aperture. Means are connected to the float for securing a fish hook or lure thereon, and means are provided for securing a fishing line to the wire at its midpoint or adjacent the float.
One form of the invention uses a straight wire, and another form of the invention uses a wire that has a substantial angular bend near its midpoint.
