bullet fishing weights

These lead sinkers are squeezed or crimped onto the line so they stay in place and can be removed for reuse. Some listings recommend using a small wrench or pliers to squeeze them on or pry them off.

They’re described as highly sensitive to small bites, use bright or eye-catching color patterns for visibility, and allow adjustable depth to position the bait.

Listings indicate use in both freshwater and saltwater (lakes, rivers, ponds) and mention suitability for bass, catfish, crappie, and trout.

They’re described as having durable plastic construction with a crush-resistant, wear-resistant cork body and a float tail made of high-tenacity material to withstand impacts.

Sinkers add weight so you can cast farther, drop the bait into the target area faster and more accurately, and help keep the line steady in wind or current.
