A new fish-on line indicator has a counterweight sufficiently heavy to hold a fishing line taut and sufficiently visible to alert the angler that the fishing has moved a swivel to slip over the fishing line to position the counterweight for view of the action and a connector for connecting the counterweight to the swivel, the connector comprising a sufficiently heavy and water resistant material. A screw eye can be substituted with a rod going through the counterweight and secured at one end with a plate and the other end connecting directly to the swivel.
