Abstract
An underwater fishing line cutter includes a housing with forward and rearward sections and a slot extending along the side thereof. A line support is mounted in each forward and rearward section of the slot, and a cutter carrier is mounted within the hollow interior of the housing. A control line is connected to the cutter carrier such that a rearward pull on the control line will move the cutting edge to sever a fishline journaled within the slot.
