Abstract: An electric shock type fishing tackle, particularly a fishing tackle which can generate an electric shock when hook incorporated to it is being pulled by fish, comprising a control box with batteries and voltage rising control circuit to provide high voltage electric current, a fishing line composed of two conductive wires, and a protection box with conductive block over a contact block supported by a spring so as the contact block is pulled whenever the hook is pulled and consequently a closed circuit is formed to provide an electric shock.
