Abstract
Disclosed is a lead-free fishing sinker and a method of manufacturing. The sinkers are constructed from a combination of colored grout and a countertop mix having a superplasticizer additive. The mixture is about 60% colored grout and 40% countertop mix having a super plasticizer additive. A liquid mixture includes a 50/50 mixture of water and latex additive to be added to the dry mixture. Steel pellets are placed within the admixture before placement into a cold mold to form any size or shape fishing sinker. The fishing sinkers can be made of most any shape and include a receptacle for holding simulator skirts or dry chum pellets.
