Fishing lures, weights, and inserts having bodies formed from natural granite chosen from granites having differing densities and colors. Surfaces of the body may selectively be polished or left unpolished. Fishing weights and inserts depend on a high density material, commonly lead, to provide mass to help sink an otherwise buoyant structure to a desired depth. Lead, a toxic material and a hazard when released into the environment, is completely eliminated by the granite structures. The porosity, especially of light colored granite, allows its use as a delivery vehicle for fish attractants that are readily absorbed into the relatively porous material, especially when such material is left unpolished.
