ABSTRACT:
A fishing unit consisting of a drum, a fishing line secured at one end to the drum and being wound on the drum with a fishhook and casting weight secured to the other end of the line extending from the drum, and a handle for the drum arranged to be grasped by the user with his forefinger extended to overlie the line windings on the drum to prevent unwinding of the line, with the drum axis substantially parallel to the forefinger, so that when the user moves his forearm and wrist forwardly with a snapping motion, and releases his forefinger from the windings, the hook and weight will be propelled forwardly by their own momentum, with the fishing line spinning freely from the forward end of the drum. The drum is hollow and sealed to be buoyant, so that it will not sink if dropped in water, and the hollow interior is specially configurated to permit the storage of additional fishing line, hooks, bait and other fishing gear.
