Quick take
A 42-piece assortment of graduated egg sinkers in a tackle box for quick rig adjustments in different depths and currents.
This 42-piece egg sinker assortment covers seven sizes from 1/8 oz up to 1.5 oz, so one box handles light and heavy bottom setups alike. The oval lead weights have a smooth center hole that lets line slide through, which suits Carolina rigs and other slip-sinker presentations. It comes in a plastic case that fits easily in a tackle box and is aimed at saltwater bottom fishing.
