ABSTRACT:
A fishing float has a watertight cylindrical receptacle for housing a battery and a lightbulb and a means for illuminating the lightbulb providing contact and current flow between the battery and the lightbulb disposed within the watertight receptacle, a transparent or translucent cap threadably connected to said receptacle to permit illumination from the lightbulb, means connected at one end of said receptacle for connecting the receptacle to a fishing line, and a buoyant floatation collar removably attachable about the exterior of said watertight receptacle and frictionably positionable along the longitudinal length of the receptacle. The collar includes a central aperture for receiving the receptacle and has a recessed portion adjacent one lip of the aperture such that the translucent cap may be sufficiently recessed on one side of the collar to adapt to different local ordinances regarding night fishing. The device is utilized as an illuminated bobber for night fishing.
