A chalk line holding device includes a hook retainer and cord holder coupled to a body with a bottom pad defining a bottom channel. A hook retainer, which projects forward from the body, includes a feature for securing a hook ring at the free end of a chalk line, while the line extending from the hook ring is secured by the cord holder. The cord holder includes a leading edge, a leading edge groove at the bottom of the leading edge defined between a pair of hoof-like feet, a cord space beneath the cord holder, a vertical groove beneath and approximately aligned with the neck of the hook retainer. The bushing couples the handle, cord holder and hook retainer to the body. The body has sufficient mass or inertia to hold a retained chalk line in place while the line is plucked.
