Abstract: An improved bobber having two separate floatation units, or bobbers, is shown and its use described. The smaller of the two bobbers is fit inside an aperture in the larger. The two floats are connected to one another along the fishing line. The larger of the two is weighted in order that it floats in an upright position and keeps the smaller float inside the larger until the fish strikes. When a fish strikes bait at the end of the line, the smaller float will come out of the larger one. In the event that the fish is not hooked, the smaller float will float at the top of the water thus indicating a miss. A stop means on the line above the apparts limits the distance the smaller one can travel from the larger float after the two parts are separated.
