Saltwater Fishing Weights Gear

The Lead Masters Glow Torpedo Sinker is a glow-painted torpedo-shaped sinker purpose-built for bottom fishing rigs where a luminescent weight provides a visibility advantage in low-light and deep water conditions. The high-intensity glow paint absorbs light easily and glows for a long time — among the best glow paint performance in the torpedo sinker category. The torpedo shape minimizes water resistance and drag in current, allowing the sinker to reach the bottom faster and hold position more effectively than round or bank sinkers of the same weight. Compatible with dropper loop, reverse dropper loop, rubber band rig, and squid catcher bottom setups. Available in 2–16 oz.

Key Features

• High-Intensity Glow Paint — Long-Lasting & Easy Charging — The glow paint on the Lead Masters Glow Torpedo Sinker absorbs light quickly and emits a long-lasting, high-intensity glow that is visible to fish in low-light conditions, at depth, and in turbid water; charge the sinker under a UV light or flashlight before each drop for maximum glow intensity; the glow sinker is most effective during night fishing for White Seabass, Rockfish, and other species that are active in low-light conditions and respond to luminescent attractors near the bait.
• Torpedo Shape — Low Drag, Fast Drop — The streamlined torpedo profile minimizes water resistance and drag in current compared to round, bank, or pyramid sinkers; the torpedo shape allows the sinker to cut through the water column faster and reach the bottom more efficiently in strong current conditions; less drag also means the sinker holds bottom position more effectively without being swept off the target zone by current.
• Versatile Rig Compatibility — Compatible with the most common bottom fishing rig configurations: dropper loop (sinker on the terminal end, hooks on dropper loops above), reverse dropper loop (hooks below the sinker), rubber band rig (sinker attached via rubber band for breakaway on snags), and squid catcher bottom weight (sinker on the bottom of a multi-hook squid catcher rig); the torpedo shape threads easily onto rig line and swivel connections.
• Wide Weight Range — 2 oz to 16 oz — Eight weight options from 2 oz to 16 oz cover a wide range of depth and current conditions; lighter weights (2–4 oz) for moderate depth and current, mid weights (6–8 oz) for deeper water and stronger current, and heavy weights (10–16 oz) for deep water, maximum current, and offshore bottom fishing applications.
• Pack Count by Size — 2–6 oz: 2 per pack. 8–16 oz: 1 per pack.

Size & Pack Count Guide

Best For

• White Seabass — Night Fishing Squid Catcher Rig — The glow torpedo sinker is a proven bottom weight for squid catcher rigs targeting White Seabass during night fishing; the glow sinker at the bottom of the squid catcher rig provides a luminescent attractor that draws White Seabass toward the rig in low-light conditions; charge the sinker before each drop for maximum glow intensity.
• Dropper Loop & Reverse Dropper Loop Rigs — The torpedo shape threads easily onto dropper loop rigs for Rockfish, Lingcod, and other bottom species; the glow paint provides an additional attractor element near the bait that can trigger strikes from fish that are attracted to the glow before committing to the bait.
• Rubber Band Rig — Snag-Resistant Bottom Fishing — The torpedo sinker attached via rubber band on a rubber band rig allows the sinker to break away on snags, saving the rest of the rig; the glow paint remains effective even when the sinker is rigged on a rubber band breakaway connection.
• Deep Water & Strong Current — Heavier weights (8–16 oz) for deep water and strong current conditions where lighter sinkers cannot reach the bottom or hold position; the torpedo shape is particularly effective in strong current where a round or bank sinker of the same weight would be swept off the target zone.

Lead Torpedo Weights are used on almost any saltwater fishing trip in Southern California.  These are the staple weight used to get your bait to the bottom for fish like halibut, rock fish, white sea bass, calico bass, white fish, and many other species. The two brass ends allow for multiple rigging styles.

We often use them for the dropper loop rig, reverse dropper loop, and sinker rig for tuna.  These premium lead weights are made right here in Southern California, buy USA products.
