ABSTRACT:
A fishing float having a buoyant body with a spherical or ellipsoidal shape. A slot is provided essentially half way through the body of the float to a central axis thereof having a line securing hook disposed at each end of the slot. When the float is placed on a fish line, the line is inserted into the slot, snapped into the hooks and aligned with the central axis of the float. A plurality of ridges in the slot maintain tension of the line to prevent slippage. The float may be moved along the fish line with slight force. The hooks prevent dislodgement of the float from striking of objects or from getting caught in weeds or the like during use.
