An improved snagless fishing sinker having a row of non-toxic biodegradable metal balls (6) surrounded and encased by a non-toxic biodegradable woven sleeve (4) and contained by an overhand knot (10b) in a supple sinker configuration (22). Hand assembled by inserting a row of balls (6) into a woven sleeve (4) until a desired aggregate weight is achieved. Contained by an overhand knot (10b) at each end, with a little slack in the sleeve (4) to allow for a supple configuration, and cut free from remaining sleeve (4) with cut ends (8) extending and remaining to prevent knots loosening. Humans and environment can benefit from the easy to use, all around snagless sinker (22) that is safe in the home and environment.
