Description

Swivels are attached to each end of the two eyelet rings to avoid mainline and leader twisting. Also available with bead chain swivels for added anti twisting.

Field Notes

These are lead mooching weights used to add sink and keep bait in the strike zone while mooching for salmon. The swivel attachments help reduce line twist, making them useful when fishing bait rigs in current or when a controlled drift is needed.

Pros

  • Purpose-built for mooching rigs
  • Swivels help reduce line twist
  • Simple way to get bait down quickly

Cons

  • Not a lure, so it adds no action
  • Lead weight can be less ideal where non-lead tackle is required
