ABSTRACT:
A fishing line is wound around a rotatable spool member and one end of the line is extended downwardly through an aperture in a buoyant body supporting the spool member. A winding mechanism connected to the spool member and an axle journalling the spool member normally biases the fishing line extended end portion toward a wound up position. Mounting members support the spool member and winding mechanism in a recess on the body for minimizing wind resistance. A brake mechanism depending from the buoyant body retards wind blown movement. A fish bite on the line pivots a trip member for releasing a wound up condition of the spool member in a fishing line winding up action on the spool for reeling in a fish caught on the line.
