    Abstract: This invention pertains to fishing poles whose bait is cast with the use of a compression spring. A traditional reel is used, but not a traditional rod. The rod is hollow and tubular in shape, and contains a compression spring. The fishing line runs from the lure at the top of the tube, through a funnel shaped container, through the length of the spring, and into the reel. Previous inventions allow their respective bait carriers to exit the rod. In this invention, however, neither the spring nor the funnel shaped container exit the tube due to a spring seat at the bottom of the tube and two small notches at the top. The angler reels in the lure, which enters the funnel shaped container, which engages the spring. The spring is compressed until the moment the angler pushes the reel button, releasing the tension and propelling only the lure out of the tube.
