A slip bobber includes a float assembly having a fishing line guide and locking mounted thereon for movement between locked and unlocked positions. The float assembly includes a pair of elongate buoyant float members interconnected by a support element having a opening therethrough. The fishing line guide and locking assembly includes a mounting member journaled on the support element and having elongate guide elements projecting into an opening therethrough. The fishing line extends through the guide elements, mounting member and support element and is freely moveable through these components when the guide and locking assembly is in a horizontal unlocked position in the water. The fishing line is locked to the support element and the guide and locking assembly when the latter is in a vertical position in the water.

Slip bobber

A slip bobber for use in ice fishing is formed of a buoyant, water impervious, plastic material. The slip bobber is provided with an elongate vertical passage therethrough for accommodating a fishing line. The slip bobber also includes a transverse passage therein for receiving a locking element. The locking element has an opening therein through which the fishing line extends. The locking element is shiftable between a release position wherein the fishing line is freely movable through the bobber and locking position. The fishing bobber is locked to the fishing line in the locked position but is readily shiftable to the release position when the fishhook is set by the fisherman.
