Quick take
A downrigger weight with fins and brass rings to keep lines running straight at depth.
This 10 lb black bullet-shaped weight is molded from lead with fins and brass rings, made to keep a dredge running down and pulling straight behind the boat. It suits offshore trollers rigging a dredge or working a downrigger for species like tuna. It is made in the USA and comes in a coated finish for protecting the deck.
