A sinker or a plummet is a
weight used in
fishing to force a
lure/
bait to sink more rapidly or to increase the distance that it may be cast. The ordinary plain sinker is made of
lead, shaped round like a pipe-stem, and swelling out in the middle. There are loops of
brass wire on either end to attach the line. The weight is from a quarter of an ounce for trout fishing up to a couple of pounds or more for sea bass and porgies.
