The Major Craft EGIZO Tip Run Sinker is an additional weight designed to adapt an Egi jig for tip-run fishing. It adds weight without changing the jig, allowing you to work it deeper, faster, or with more control in the current. Its streamlined shape reduces drag in the water and helps maintain a stable posture during the descent.
The EGIZO Tip Run Sinker is the ideal choice when your jig lacks stability at depth, in a current, or in windy conditions. The additional weight helps maintain constant line tension, a key factor for detecting the subtle bites of squid when tip-running. Its centered shape stabilizes the jig and limits excessive drift during vertical retrieves. Lighter weights provide subtle control over the descent, while heavier weights help reach the target depth more quickly. The choice depends on the depth, the strength of the current, and the need to keep the jig under control.
