A fishing sinker is comprised of a polyhedron body having a rectangular
base and triangular sides with a common blunt vertex, adapted to generate
a net upward lifting force during forward motion. The streamlined shape
of the sinker also makes it more aerodynamic during casting and minimizes
splashing during entry into water. A central channel is formed in the
body for receiving an eyelet pin with a swaged end, a straight section
extending through said central channel and an integrally formed eyelet
portion protruding from the blunt vertex. A plurality of symmetrically
arranged stabilizer fins extending along angles of intersection of each
adjacent triangular side. The eyelet portion is a resilient eyelet with a
slip-on opening biased into a closed position. The vertex makes the
sinker quite aerodynamic, as it leads the way on casts through the air
and into the water.
