A fishing line assembly is provided including a flexible base end portion for support from a support structure such as a fishing rod, a flexible free end portion from one end of which a hook assembly may be supported and an elongated intermediate portion extending between and connecting the base end portion and the second end of the free end portion. The intermediate portion includes structure functioning to rigidify the intermediate portion and further includes opposite end oppositely inclined transverse vane members supported therefrom, whereby a pull on the hook assembly supported from the free end portion as a result of a fish biting on the hook assembly will cause lengthwise displacement of the intermediate portion and the resultant movement of the vane members through the water will cause the intermediate portion to be inclined relative to the direction of the pull on the free end portion of the fishing line assembly and thus resist the pull and thereby render the effect of an almost immediate pull on the end of the free end portion remote from the hook assembly in a direction substantially opposite to the direction of the pull effected by the biting fish.
In combination with a fishing line assembly including a flexible base end portion for support from a support structure such as a fishing rod, a flexible free end portion from one end of which a hook assembly may be supported and an elongated intermediate portion extending between and connecting said end portions, said intermediate portion including means functioning to rigidify said intermediate portion, the opposite ends of said intermediate portion including oppositely inclined transverse water vane portions supported therefrom against rotation relative to said intermediate portion, whereby a downward pull on the free end portion of the fishing line assembly by a fish biting on the attached hook assembly sufficient to cause lengthwise downward displacement of the fishing line assembly against light buoyancy applied thereto by an associated bobber will cause said intermediate portion to be inclined relative to the direction of the pull and thus resist said pull at the free end portion of said fishing line assembly to thereby render the effect of an almost immediate pull on the free end portion of the fishing line assembly in a direction substantially opposite to the direction of the pull effected thereon by a fish.
In combination with a fishing line assembly including a flexible base end portion for support from a support structure such as a fishing rod, a flexible free end portion from one end of which a hook assembly may be supported and an elongated intermediate portion extending between and connecting said end portions, said intermediate portion including means functioning to rigidify said intermediate portion, the opposite ends of said intermediate portion including oppositely inclined transverse water vane portions supported therefrom, whereby a downward pull on the free end portion of the fishing line assembly by a fish biting on the attached hook assembly sufficient to cause lengthwise downward displacement of the fishing line assembly against light buoyancy applied thereto by an assoiated bobber will cause said intermediate portion to be inclined relative to the direction of the pull and thus resist said pull at the free end portion of said fishing line assembly to thereby render the effect of an almost immediate pull on the free end portion of the fishing line assembly in a direction substantially opposite to the direction of the pull effected thereon by a fish, said intermediate portion comprising an elongated rigid member to whose opposite ends the adjacent ends of said base and free end portions are secured, said rigid member and said water vane portions being constructed of transparent material, said water vane portions comprising opposite ends of an elongated bowed panel member whose opposite ends are anchored relative to corresponding ends of said rigid member.
