ABSTRACT:
Release means providing separation of a fishing sinker from remaining fishing gear upon a fish strike. A wire member engages, at its forward end, first and second eyelets of a fishing line attachment. Disposed between the eyelets and supported by the forward end of the wire member is a sinker line. Tensioning of the wire member during a fish strike, results in partial retraction of the wire member through the eyelets to release the sinker line. The wire member is of looped configuration and shaped so as to retain its position relative to the eyelets against all forces exerted thereon other than a tensioning force resulting from a fish strike. A modified form of wire member is reinforced intermediate its ends.
