Quick take
Lead egg sinkers with streamlined shape for drop shot fishing and casting distance.
This is a pack of ten oval egg sinkers cast in lead, in the 3/4 oz size. The smooth egg profile slips through water and air with little drag, and the lead body is meant for saltwater trips. Anglers rigging drop shot or bottom setups from shore, a kayak or offshore can use them to get bait down to the target zone.
