Fishing bobbers

A fishing line bobber comprising:

• an elongated portion having an outer surface, a substantially cylindrical aperture, a tab channel formed in the outer surface, and a slot that enables a fishing line to be positioned within the aperture;
• and
• a closing mechanism rotatably positioned within the substantially cylindrical aperture of the elongated portion, the closing mechanism comprising:
• a tab position in the tab channel and configured to rotate the closing mechanism between an open position in which the fishing line is insertable into the aperture and a closed position in which the fishing line is retained within the aperture;
• and
• wherein the tab is disposed on the closing mechanism between a first attachment slot configured to enable the bobber to function as an attachment bobber and a second slip slot configured to enable the bobber to function as a slip bobber.

A fishing line bobber comprising:

• a bobber body having a length and an exterior surface, the bobber body comprising:
• an aperture that extends through the length of the bobber body, wherein at least a portion of the aperture in the bobber body is substantially cylindrical, and wherein the closing mechanism is rotatably disposed within the substantially cylindrical portion of the aperture;
• a slot extending along the length of the bobber body and connected to the aperture through sidewalls that extend from the exterior surface of the bobber body inward to the aperture;
• a closing mechanism movable with respect to the bobber body between an open position that permits insertion of a fishing line into the aperture and a closed position that retains the fishing line within the aperture;
• and
• wherein the closing mechanism is configured to enable the fishing line bobber to function as an attachment bobber that maintains a fixed position on the fishing line and as a slip bobber that is moveable along the fishing line.
