ABSTRACT:
A tethered, floating fishing device is provided having a depending anchor post to which is connected an anchor by means of an anchor line. The apparatus incorporates a generally circular float having upper and lower sharp circular edges formed respectively by upper and lower flat plates. A rod and line connector post extends upwardly from the float and provides support for a plurality of elongate flexible fishing rods that are disposed in upwardly diverging relation. Fishing lines, secured to a line connector assembly at the upper portion of the rod and line connector post extend through line support loops located at the free extremity of the flexible fishing rods and extend downwardly to the surface of the water at locations spaced from the float. Fishing hooks may be secured to the fishing line in positions to locate bait fish at or near the water surface, or if desired, the lines may be of additional length so as to selectively position the bait fish at desired levels beneath the surface. Location of the bait fish at the surface enables the live bait to create sufficient surface disturbance to attract large fish that swim upwardly and strike the bait fish. The anchor post is of greater length than the rod and line connector post to provide the float with stabilizing ballast.
