A trolling tackle device having a reversible power drive reel for raising and lowering a metal line and a heavy sinker in deep water trolling. A fishing line, bait and hooks are releasably attached adjacent the sinker and are thus to be lowered to the desired depth and are arranged to separate from the sinker line when a fish takes the bait. The drive is controlled by a switch so that when the sinker and tackle reach the desired depth, the switch is automatically opened and the reel is stopped with the tackle at a predetermined depth. When a fish is caught the fisherman throws the switch and the sinker line and sinker are pulled up by the power reel, preventing fouling of the lines by the action of the fish. When the sinker reaches the desired height the switch is automatically opened and the sinker held at a predetermined height. The automatic stopping of the reel allows the fisherman to place the bait at the same depth each time the fishing line is reeled in, and allows him freedom to play the fish when the sinker is raised without concern as to the need to manually stop the reel when the sinker reaches the boat. A rheostat is placed in circuit relationship with the power reel so that the speed of the motor can be regulated in its downward descent.
