Abstract: A means to cast a fishing bait or lure using a weight on your fishing line which eliminates the disadvantages of weight on the line. This is achieved by the use of a weight, so configured that it detaches from fishing line instantly or over time, depending on preference, upon contact with water. The configuration of the weight is 2 equal bodies of clay held together by water-soluble adhesive tape. The amount of tape determines the amount of time the weight stays attached to the line. The identical clay bodies have a tab and slot on the mating surface of the bodies to prevent slippage. There is a groove down the longitudinal axis of the bodies, which forms a hole for fishing line when the bodies are joined together. This weight is easily attached to the line using the hole formed.
