Quick take
Pyramid-shaped sinkers that stand firmly on sandy and muddy bottoms and resist rolling in strong currents.
This is a pack of 20 one-ounce pyramid sinkers in brass, each with a ring on top for tying in. The flat faces of the pyramid shape help a rig stay put on sandy bottoms and in surf current instead of rolling. They suit surf, pier and bottom fishing, in salt or fresh water.
Best for
- Surf fishing where holding bottom in waves is critical
- Pier and bank fishing for catfish and bottom feeders
- Saltwater inshore and offshore bottom rigs
Skip if
- You fish fast current and need lighter weights that slip easily
- You fish rocky bottoms and need weights that snag less
Strengths
- Flat pyramid shape prevents rolling and keeps the rig in place on shifting bottoms
- Brass ring has smooth finish to minimize line fraying and wear
- Heavy weight sinks quickly and holds position in strong offshore currents
Trade-offs
- Pyramid shape makes retrieval difficult if snagged on bottom rocks or wood
- Brass coating can wear off with heavy use or saltwater exposure
- 1 oz weight is heavier than lighter freshwater applications need
