ABSTRACT:
A safety sinker includes a sinker connected to a fish line through a sinker coupler, wherein the sinker coupler may be pulled, by means of a fish line, to disconnect the sinker from the fish line when the sinker is squeezed in between rocks or somethings during fishing. The sinker coupler includes a fork end having two semi-sphere members made thereon for connecting the sinker when they are squeezed to form into a spherical configuration and inserted into the inner chamber of the sinker. The two semi-sphere members may be squeezed to form into a spherical configuration again, by means of a pull force through the fish line, so as to slip away from the sinker and to disconnect the fish line from the sinker.
