A fishing line sinker assemblage and the method of using same including a sinker having a streamlined, weighted body that is provided with a longitudinally extending, central bore. A novel fishing line connector and release means which comprises a yieldably deformable relatively light gauge stainless steel wire securement member is telescopically receivable within the central base of the weight body. The securement member includes a uniquely formed, spiral shaped connector loop that enables the connector and release means to be readily interconnected with a fishing line without cutting the line or removing the hook or swivel. Once the fishing line has been connected to the release means, the legs of the release means are fed through the central bore of the weighted body and one or more of the legs is bent outwardly and then cut. Should the weight become snagged, the weight can be expeditiously released from the release means by exerting an upward pressure on the fishing line. Once the weight is released, the fish can then be played in a conventional manner and the entire rigging, less the sinker can be recovered.
