ABSTRACT:
The fishhook is provided with a lead sinker cast around the shank of the hook and which incorporates two small sharp barbs projecting laterally adjacent the shank of the sinker. Nightcrawler is impaled on the hook in the normal manner but with the nightcrawler impaled on the barbs thereby more firmly securing the nightcrawler to the hook. It has been found that with this arrangement the nightcrawler can be cast for a considerably longer period of time without losing the nightcrawler.
