Lead Weights

The Damiki Nail Sinkers are perfect for adding a small amount of weight to your soft plastic lures. An adjustment in weight can make the difference when conditions on the water change or you want to modify your bait's action.

Easily clipped down with standard line clippers, the Damiki Nail Baits are an ace-up-your-sleeve. The ability to make quick changes helps you stay one step ahead.

Lead Egg Sinkers can be used in so many ways while fishing it's hard to say how the best way to use them is.  For live bait fishing offshore in Southern California, we use them most often to get our bait deeper in the column.  Often times the bird will eat your bait and just a little weight can get it out of reach of the birds and in the mouth of the fish.  

In freshwater, they are often used for fishing the Carolina Rig for many different species.  These lead weights are made by Leadmasters and are premium quality.  Get some as an add on to your order like most of our customers do.  We also have torpedo weights if you're looking for weights over 1oz.

The Lead Masters Drop Shot Weights are purpose-built for drop shot fishing with a pinch clip line attachment that allows the weight to be secured to the tag end of the line without tying a knot — and repositioned up or down the line to adjust the distance between the hook and the weight without retying. The pinch clip mechanism grips the line securely during the retrieve and on the hookset while still allowing intentional repositioning when needed. Available in five weights from 1/16 oz to 3/8 oz to match a wide range of depth and current conditions. 8–10 per pack.

Key Features

• Pinch Clip Line Attachment — No Knot Required — The pinch clip (also called a pinch point or swivel clip) on the bottom of the weight grips the tag end of the line without requiring a knot; the clip allows the weight to be attached, removed, and repositioned on the line quickly without cutting and retying — a significant advantage when adjusting the hook-to-weight distance to match different bottom depths and structure.
• Repositionable Without Retying — The pinch clip allows the weight to slide up or down the tag end of the line to adjust the distance between the drop shot hook and the weight; longer distances (12–18") for suspending the bait higher off the bottom in clear water, shorter distances (6–10") for keeping the bait closer to the bottom in deeper water or when fish are holding tight to the bottom.
• Five Weight Options — 1/16 to 3/8 oz — Available in 1/16 oz, 1/8 oz, 3/16 oz, 1/4 oz, and 3/8 oz to match a wide range of depth and current conditions; lighter weights (1/16–1/8 oz) for shallow water and finesse presentations, mid weights (3/16–1/4 oz) for standard drop shot depth ranges, and heavier weights (3/8 oz) for deeper water and situations where wind or current requires more weight to maintain bottom contact.
• 8–10 Per Pack — The 1/16–1/4 oz sizes come in a 10-pack; the 3/8 oz comes in an 8-pack; provides multiple weights per pack for rigging multiple rods or replacing lost weights when fishing rocky bottom where snags are common.

Weight Selection Guide

Best For

• Drop Shot Bass Fishing — The primary application; rig a drop shot hook 6–18" above the weight on the main line and attach the weight to the tag end with the pinch clip; the weight sits on the bottom while the bait suspends above it at a fixed distance, presenting the soft plastic at a consistent depth in the strike zone without the bait touching the bottom.
• Clear Water & Finesse Fishing — Lighter weights (1/16–1/8 oz) for clear water finesse drop shot presentations where a slow, subtle presentation is needed to trigger strikes from pressured or finicky bass; the light weight allows the bait to move naturally with minimal angler input.
• Deep Water & Windy Conditions — Heavier weights (1/4–3/8 oz) for deep water drop shotting where more weight is needed to maintain bottom contact and keep the rig from drifting in wind and current; the 3/8 oz is the go-to weight for deep summer bass fishing in 20–40+ ft of water.

The Lead Masters Triangle 3-Sided Sinker is designed for moderate to heavy current applications where a standard round or egg sinker would roll and slide along the bottom. The three-sided triangular profile digs into the bottom on contact, anchoring the line in a vertical hang that keeps the bait positioned directly above the sinker rather than dragging downcurrent. The triangular cross-section provides three flat faces that grip the bottom more effectively than a four-sided pyramid sinker, reducing rolling and sliding in current and surge. Molded-in brass eye for easy rigging. Available in 1–6 oz.

Note: Additional shipping charges may apply for larger sizes.

Key Features

• 3-Sided Triangle Profile — Bottom Grip — The triangular cross-section digs into sandy and soft bottom on contact, anchoring the sinker in place and preventing it from rolling and sliding in current and surge; the three flat faces provide more bottom contact area than a round sinker and a more stable grip than a four-sided pyramid sinker in moderate to heavy current conditions.
• Vertical Line Hang — The triangle sinker’s bottom-gripping design keeps the line hanging vertically above the sinker rather than dragging at an angle downcurrent; the vertical hang positions the bait directly above the sinker in the strike zone and provides more direct contact with the sinker for improved bite detection.
• Holds in Moderate to Heavy Current — Purpose-built for surf fishing, pier fishing, and any application where current and wave surge would move a standard sinker out of position; the triangular profile and bottom-digging action hold the rig in place through moderate to heavy current without constant repositioning.
• Molded-In Brass Eye — The brass eye is molded directly into the sinker head for a secure, permanent attachment point; brass resists corrosion in saltwater environments and provides a smooth, snag-free surface for the swivel or snap to slide on during rigging.
• 1–6 oz Weight Range — Five weight options from 1 oz to 6 oz cover a wide range of current and depth conditions; lighter weights (1–2 oz) for moderate current and shallow surf, heavier weights (3–6 oz) for heavy current, strong surf, and deeper water where more weight is needed to hold bottom.

Size & Pack Count Guide

Best For

• Surf Fishing — The primary application for the triangle sinker; the bottom-gripping triangular profile holds the rig in place through wave surge and longshore current in the surf zone; use heavier weights (4–6 oz) for heavy surf and strong longshore current, lighter weights (1–2 oz) for calmer surf conditions.
• Pier & Jetty Fishing in Current — Effective for pier and jetty fishing where tidal current would move a round or egg sinker out of position; the vertical line hang keeps the bait positioned correctly in the current without constant repositioning.
• Bottom Fishing in Current — Any bottom fishing application where current is a factor; the triangle sinker’s bottom-gripping design holds the rig in the strike zone longer than a standard sinker, reducing the need to recast when current moves the bait out of position.

Phenix Finesse Slider Weights are exactly like the Mojo weights we used to know and love! Perfect for split-shotting and carolina rigging due to their long, cylindrical shape. This shape also allows them to come through cover and rocks with ease.

The Z-Man Neko ShroomZ is a specialized nose weight designed to simplify the rigging of Neko rigs, particularly with Z-Man's proprietary ElaZtec material. Because ElaZtech is extremely durable and buoyant, traditional nail weights often fail to penetrate or stay secured; the Neko ShroomZ solves this with a unique hardware design.

Key Features & Design

• Dual-Prong Keeper: Features a stainless steel centering pin for easy alignment and two sharp molded plastic barbs that lock into the bait.

• Mushroom Head: The weighted head is shaped like Z-Man’s famous "ShroomZ" jigheads, which helps the bait rock and pivot on the bottom for a more lifelike action.

• External Weight: Unlike traditional nail weights that are buried inside the plastic, the head remains on the outside, providing increased and better bottom contact.
