The Lead Masters Triangle 3-Sided Sinker is designed for moderate to heavy current applications where a standard round or egg sinker would roll and slide along the bottom. The three-sided triangular profile digs into the bottom on contact, anchoring the line in a vertical hang that keeps the bait positioned directly above the sinker rather than dragging downcurrent. The triangular cross-section provides three flat faces that grip the bottom more effectively than a four-sided pyramid sinker, reducing rolling and sliding in current and surge. Molded-in brass eye for easy rigging. Available in 1–6 oz. Note: Additional shipping charges may apply for larger sizes. Key Features 3-Sided Triangle Profile — Bottom Grip — The triangular cross-section digs into sandy and soft bottom on contact, anchoring the sinker in place and preventing it from rolling and sliding in current and surge; the three flat faces provide more bottom contact area than a round sinker and a more stable grip than a four-sided pyramid sinker in moderate to heavy current conditions. Vertical Line Hang — The triangle sinker’s bottom-gripping design keeps the line hanging vertically above the sinker rather than dragging at an angle downcurrent; the vertical hang positions the bait directly above the sinker in the strike zone and provides more direct contact with the sinker for improved bite detection. Holds in Moderate to Heavy Current — Purpose-built for surf fishing, pier fishing, and any application where current and wave surge would move a standard sinker out of position; the triangular profile and bottom-digging action hold the rig in place through moderate to heavy current without constant repositioning. Molded-In Brass Eye — The brass eye is molded directly into the sinker head for a secure, permanent attachment point; brass resists corrosion in saltwater environments and provides a smooth, snag-free surface for the swivel or snap to slide on during rigging. 1–6 oz Weight Range — Five weight options from 1 oz to 6 oz cover a wide range of current and depth conditions; lighter weights (1–2 oz) for moderate current and shallow surf, heavier weights (3–6 oz) for heavy current, strong surf, and deeper water where more weight is needed to hold bottom. Size & Pack Count Guide Weight Qty per Pack Best Application 1 oz 6-pack Light current, shallow surf, calm conditions 2 oz 4-pack Moderate current, standard surf fishing 3 oz 3-pack Moderate to heavy current, deeper surf 4 oz 2-pack Heavy current, strong surf, rocky bottom 6 oz 1-pack Maximum hold, heavy surf, deep water, strong current Best For Surf Fishing — The primary application for the triangle sinker; the bottom-gripping triangular profile holds the rig in place through wave surge and longshore current in the surf zone; use heavier weights (4–6 oz) for heavy surf and strong longshore current, lighter weights (1–2 oz) for calmer surf conditions. Pier & Jetty Fishing in Current — Effective for pier and jetty fishing where tidal current would move a round or egg sinker out of position; the vertical line hang keeps the bait positioned correctly in the current without constant repositioning. Bottom Fishing in Current — Any bottom fishing application where current is a factor; the triangle sinker’s bottom-gripping design holds the rig in the strike zone longer than a standard sinker, reducing the need to recast when current moves the bait out of position.
