Quick take

Coated keel-style downrigger weight with blue flash plate to attract fish.

Best for

  • Downrigger trolling in deep saltwater
  • Trolling setups where weight needs to track smoothly
  • Reaching bottom or specific depth zones on structure

Skip if

  • You fish freshwater lakes
  • You use inline weights instead of downrigger systems

Strengths

  • Polyethylene coating tracks smoothly through water
  • Blue flash plate adds attraction while weight descends
  • Available in multiple sizes for different trolling depths

Trade-offs

  • Heavy 8 lb weight requires downrigger system to deploy
  • Keel design may catch on bottom structure if trolling shallow
  • Coating can scrape or chip during repeated use
