Ball Sinker Mould

Our Ball Sinker Moulds create Ball Sinkers that are essential tools in fishing due to their ability to:

• enhance sinking rates
• facilitate longer casts
• flexible rigging, keeping bait close to the bottom while adapting to current movements.

Their versatility allows them to be effective:

• in both fresh and saltwater environments
• for various setups, including the running sinker rig. 

This makes them a popular choice for general-purpose bait fishing.

Key Uses for Ball Sinkers from our Ball Sinker Mould:

• Running Sinker Rig: Thread the line through the sinker for free movement. This setup enables fish to take the bait without sensing resistance, increasing your chances of a catch.
• Weighting the Bait: The sinker adds necessary weight to ensure the bait and hook reach the desired depth. This can be adjusted by selecting different sizes of sinkers.
• Casting Distance: The shape of the ball sinker ensures excellent aerodynamics, allowing for long and stable casts.
• Anchoring the Bait: In certain rigs, a ball sinker can be paired with a swivel to keep the bait anchored in a specific location while still allowing slight movement with the current.

Considerations When Using Ball Sinkers

• Mobility: Due to their shape, ball sinkers can roll easily on the bottom in currents or sloped surfaces, potentially shifting the bait from the intended spot or causing snags.
• Sinker Weight: Choosing the appropriate sinker weight is vital and should be based on conditions such as tide, current, water depth, and the species you aim to catch.
• Rigging: Depending on your fishing strategy, you can rig a ball sinker as a "running" sinker or secure it in place.
