Abstract: A slip clip line apparatus designed for use with fishing floats and sinkers to aid in their attachment to a fishing line. The slip clip has a slip body which engages the fishing line and allows the slip clip to slide freely along a predetermined length of fishing line. The slip body is a U-shaped apparatus having an open and centrally located line slip which is substantially closed. The slip clip further has a lower insertion body which may be connected to a piece of tubing that in turn may be connected to a float or a sinker.

Abstract: A ball mark repair tool is provided which contains a method by which a scoring pencil can be held by the repair tool and removed or replaced as needed. This cuts down on the number of loose articles in a golfers pocket and prevents the loss of tools during play.

Abstract: A fishing float having three or more vanes extending radially from a longitudinal axis. The vanes provide the floatation section with a large profile relative to the cross-sectional area of the float. The vanes can be selectively detached from the center stem of the float.

Abstract: The present invention includes a fishing float having three or more vanes extending radially from a longitudinal axis. The vanes provide the floatation section with a large profile relative to the cross-sectional area of the float. The vanes can be selectively detached from the center stem of the float. Also included is a line retention system that allows switching between a slip mode and stationary mode with minor modification in the placement of a sleeve fitted over a slot formed in one end of the float. Also disclosed is the ability of the present invention to be adapted for use with known pencil bobbers.

Abstract: A hook protection and float device including a pair of cooperating enclosing halves operable to open and close with respect to each other. Flanges integral with each enclosing half are used to manipulate the halves into the open position against the biasing of a resilient band. The halves each include an exterior perimeter surface terminating in a perimeter edge. The edges provide for overlapping cooperation of the perimeter edges when the halves are closed with respect to each other. The exterior surfaces define an enclosure space for the placement therein or removal therefrom from a fish hook. The perimeter edges define a hook shank hole through which the shank portion of the hook protrudes when the hook is enclosed within the enclosure space. The present invention also includes a hook shank collar the perimeter of which is coterminous with the perimeter of the hook shank hole and extends therefrom into the enclosure space.
