Abstract

A strike indicator and strike indicator tooling assembly for use in fishing. The strike indicator comprises two hemispheres that may form a substantially spherical outer dimension around fishing line. The two hemispheres may fit frictionally together to prevent movement or slipping of the fishing line between the two hemispheres once assembled. The hemispheres may be disassembled to replace the fishing line, and reuse the strike indicator. The tooling assembly comprises a top insert, and a bottom insert. The top insert and bottom insert compress around a foam sheet to form the spherical outer form figures of the two hemispheres.
