ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a water fishing device or hook setter which can be left unattended. The hook setter includes a circular or polygonal floating base member having a plurality of diagonal frame members which are joined together at their upper ends by a top piece. Suspended from the top piece are a resilient member (a rubber band or spring), a trigger mechanism which includes a hook that engages a fixedly mounted bracket, and a fishing line suspended from the hook. When a fish pulls on the fishing line, the hook is disengaged from the bracket, and the rubber band or spring pulls the fishing line and fish toward the hook setter.
