TITLE Fishing Implement ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A fishing implement arranged for attachment to a reel-line and for attaching a fishing hook assembly is disclosed including, in the preferred embodiment, an L-shaped wire member having first and second legs. In the preferred embodiment, a reel-line attachment loop is formed at the junction of the first and second legs by twisting a length of spring wire forming the L-shaped wire member. A swivel attached to an attaching loop on the second leg is provided for attaching the fishing hook assembly to the fishing implement. A sinker having a substantially snagless shape is attached to the first leg. The sinker includes a bottom surface having a first, generally straight portion, a second, generally rounded portion, and a third, generally raised end portion. The sinker further includes a generally flat top surface for aiding the fishing implement to run at a constant depth and maintain its vertical orienta- tion. The first leg extends from the first, generally straight portion in a substantially tangential manner from the second, generally rounded portion of the bottom surface of the sinker. Due to the location of the attachment loop forward and above the sinker, and also the snagless shape of the sinker, the fishing implement is able to rock to a secondary position having a greater vertical orientation such that the fishing implement is able to raise itself over and dislodge itself from obstructions. The swivel is located forward of the sinker to further balance the fishing implement when the fishing hook assembly is attached thereto.
