    Abstract: A panel of fabric, 40 sq. ft. or more in size, held in shape by a floating collapsible frame that is easily and quickly assembled and disassembled, for the purpose of aggregating free-swimming gamefish into the immediate area of the invention. The invention collapses into a very small package, so that one or more can be easily stored and transported on a boat. The device also incorporates a chum bag underneath to enhance the fish attracting properties by first attracting bait. It is designed to be free-floating or attached to a drifting or anchored boat, thereby bringing gamefish within casting distance. No existing FAD is portable and compact, as they are pre-assembled or made for permanent deployment.
