Upgrade your finesse presentations with premium tungsten split shot sinkers in 1/32 oz and 1/16 oz. Tungsten’s higher density gives you a smaller profile, faster sink rate, and sharper bottom feel than lead—perfect for creeks, rivers, and lakes when chasing trout, panfish, and ultralight targets. These are lead-free and built for precision.
Important: These do not function like traditional lead split shot. They do not crimp, pinch, or open up. Trying to pry or squeeze them open will break the sinker. Instead, use the simple Loop-Rig Slot shown in our image.
How to Rig (Loop-Rig Method)
- Place your line into the sinker’s slot (across the internal holder).
- Wrap the line around the outside and feed it back into the slot a second time.
- Pull snug to lock. For extra hold, repeat the wrap-and-insert step once more.
Tip: Works great with mono/fluoro; for braid, use a short leader.
Why Tungsten Split Shot
- Ultra-dense = tiny, stealthy profile with a fast drop.
- High sensitivity to detect light bites and bottom changes.
- Lead-free and creek-friendly.
- Dialed weights: 1/32 oz (≈0.89 g) and 1/16 oz (≈1.77 g) for precise tuning.
Use Notes
- Do not crimp with pliers, bite, or attempt to open—they will break.
- Secure by looping the line into the slot as described above.
- Ideal for micro/ultralight presentations in clear, shallow water.
Get precise depth control and natural drifts without line damage—just loop, lock, and fish.
