This ball sinker is ideal for setting up a discreet, sensitive, and effective Carolina rig with a soft plastic lure. The 97% pure tungsten transmits bites more effectively than a bulkier sinker and helps you detect hard bottoms, rocks, or uneven terrain. The absence of an insert enhances the feel and ensures the rig remains compatible with rubber stopper pegging. The compact profile glides more easily through obstacles and minimizes snags during slow retrieves. The choice of weight depends on the depth, the distance to be covered, and the desired presentation speed for bass, zander, or perch.
