ABSTRACT:
A non-snagging fishing sinker comprising a flexible plastic bag having at least three sides defined thereby, wherein one side is open to allow various weight-providing materials to be placed therein, preferably wet sand. Disposed along and adjacent to the open side are a plurality of holes to receive a wrapping wire which is provided with an eye hook to be attached to a conventional fishing line. There is also formed adjacent and below the holes a weakened area, whereby the lower portion of the bag can be easily separated from the fishing line when the sinker is snagged; that is, the bag is allowed to tear along the weakened area.
