Affiliate disclosure: Some product links are affiliate links. Tackle.net earns from qualifying purchases.

Description

The hooklink boom is commonly tied using either coated braid like Tungsten Loaded or fluorocarbon like Soft Ghost. The tungsten sleeve serves two important functions – it secures the rig on the clip and is also the counterbalance for the pop up. Available 0.3g and 0.6g that can be tailored to different sized hooks and hookbaits to create perfectly balanced pop up presentations. As a rough guide the 0.3g for smaller 12-14mm pop ups and the 0.6g for 15-16mm. Available in weedy green, camo brown and silt grey with 8 clips and 8 sleeves per packet.

Field Notes

Use these tungsten sleeves with Ronnie-style clips to balance pop-up hookbaits. Match the sleeve weight (0.3g for smaller 12–14mm pop ups; 0.6g for 15–16mm) so the rig sits correctly and the hooklink remains secured on the clip.

Pros

  • Tungsten sleeve provides rig security on the clip
  • Acts as a counterbalance for pop-up hookbaits
  • Multiple weights for different pop-up sizes
  • Color options for different bottom/weed conditions

Cons

  • Requires pairing with Ronnie clips/hooklink setup to function
