A fishing apparatus is provided which overcomes a number of disadvantages with the conventional "jug line" used in jug fishing. The fishing apparatus includes an elongated cylindrical float of a pliable, resilient, and buoyant material. The float has a longitudinal axis and longitudinally spaced first and second ends. An eye is fixedly secured to the first end of the float, and a fishing line has an end attached to the eye. At least one hook is attached to the fishing line at a position spaced from the end of the fishing line. A counterweight is embedded in the second end of the float to assist in maintaining the float in a horizontal position before a fish strikes. The float assumes a vertical position when a fish is caught.
