Grapnel Long Wire Sinker Moulds / Claw Long Wire Sinker Moulds are essential in creating sinkers that effective anchor your baitin strong currents or on rough bottoms.

They allow the added wires to dig into the sand or reef. These sinkers are especially beneficial for surf fishing, live baiting, and casting into targeted areas. Wires can be adjusted to secure firmly in challenging conditions, or release easily to prevent snagging when a fish bites.

Key Uses and Features

  • Anchoring in Strong Currents: The wire arms penetrate the sea bed, keeping your bait in place against strong currents, tides, or surf.
  • Fishing on Rough or Rocky Bottoms: When deployed on reefs, the wires can be bent to trip open, minimising the risk of the sinker getting stuck while battling a fish. They can be straightened out after landing the catch.
  • Surf Fishing: These sinkers are perfect for casting over long distances and keeping the bait securely anchored on sandy bottoms, preventing it from being washed away.
  • Sliding Bait Fishing: The wires can be adjusted to hold the sinker firmly while allowing the bait to slide down the line to the desired location, making this technique highly effective.
  • "Trip" Action: The flexible wires bend or trip open when a fish bites or during retrieval, which is vital for avoiding tears in soft-mouthed fish and facilitating  a smooth passage through snags and rocks.
  • Adjustable Hold: The stiffness of the wire arms can be modified. In strong conditions, you can set them to be firmer for better hold. In calmer waters or when fishing on reefs, a more sensitive setting allows for easier tripping.
