ABSTRACT:
An attachment for a fishing line which comprises an elongated sinker having an end section with line grippers for locking onto a fishing line and a pair of eyes for holding the fishing line in proper position. The interior of the sinker contains a groove which holds the fishing line in the center of the sinker and a pair of line gripping members located on the end of the sinker coact with the body of the sinker to firmly hold the line in the sinker. A line organizer forms part of the eye and prevents the opening in the end of the sinker from being closed during the tumbling action that sinkers encounter prior to use. The sinker body can be mounted on the fishing line so the sinker body remains symmetrical with respect to the fishing line to thereby produce a weedless sinker that maintains its alignment with the fishing line.
