ABSTRACT:
A releasable fishing float for use in ice fishing including a cork body tapered downwardly from an enlarged upper end to a reduced lower end to provide a generally buoyant pear-shaped body. The upper end is internally tapered and a longitudinal bore extends therethrough to receive the fishing line. A coil spring is attached parallel to the top upper edge so that the line may be wedged between the coils thereof to retain the line thereat and the float at a suitable distance below the ice surface. When a fish takes the hook on the lower end of the line and the hook is set, the line becomes unclipped from the coil spring and slides freely through the cork and the latter is out of the way during reeling of the line and fish. The submerged cork offers no resistance to the fish and signals the smallest bite.
