A fishing line accessory system for securing fishing accessories to a fishing line includes a primary coupling component, a secondary coupling component coupleable with the primary coupling component, and at least one fishing accessory. One of the coupling components has a first magnet, at least one fishing accessory includes a second magnet, and the second magnet is attachable to and detachable from the first magnet. The fishing line is secured between the primary coupling component and the secondary coupling component.

A fishing hook assembly includes a hook element including a tie rail, which defines an enlarged line-pass-through area.

A fishing sinker consisting of a cloth bag which is open at the top. The bag is partially filled and then the upper part of the bag is gathered together and closed by means of an eye pin and rubber band attached to the eye of the eye pin. The eye pin is laid across the gathered fabric then the rubber band is pulled around the gathered fabric and over the end of the eye pin to provide closure. The bag can thus be emptied and retrieved by pulling firmly on the fishing line, which is also attached to the metal pin, which is tethered to the bottom of the bag.

The disclosed technology includes an apparatus and method for applying a fishing sinker directly to a fishing line. In one implementation, the apparatus comprises a lower lever, an upper lever configured to rotate around an axis of a hinge in a direction toward the lower lever, and a jaw located on a first end of the upper lever and terminating with a tooth, the tooth configured to move into an aperture in the lower lever to compress the fishing sinker located in the lower lever into a closed position around a fishing line.

A quick release fishing sinker consists of a sealed packet formed from a material that dissolves in water, and weighted sinker material contained inside the sealed packet. The sealed packet may be composed of an elongated volume of dissolvable polymer film that has an unfilled portion formable into a tieable thread line for attachment by tying to fishing line, bait, or fishing tackle. The unfilled portion of the packet may occur between filled ends of the packet or primarily at one end of the packet opposite a filled end of the packet.

A compound, adjustable fishing sinker comprised of a plurality of weights. All of the weights have a hole through which a fishing line may be tied, allowing any of the weights to be the initial weight put on a line. All of the weights have threaded screw shanks and threaded screw sockets, allowing the weights to be screwed together in any order, interchangeably. The system is designed to be durable and inexpensive. The weight elements, in aggregate, have a large enough mass to cause the hook to sink, but a small enough mass that they can be cast with the fishing line.
