Abstract
A fishing rig which includes a housing for a spinning reel, a short rod section which pivots at its anchor end to engage the underneath portion of the reel housing, and a closed 'C' shaped handle which also serves as a storage chamber for the lure, bobber, or other fish catching element employed at the end of the line. The handle is thin enough to fit in a fisherman's pocket for carrying, and also includes a belt hook for holding the rig to free the fisherman's hands. The bobber construction disclosed is of a floating member, unweighted, and which slides along the line to a point where a knot may be tied to determine the depth to which a weighted hook will sink, the bobber being slidable along the line to permit casting with the bobber adjacent the sinker.
