The Reins TG Drop Shot Sinker Heavy Weight features a design that makes it easier to pull thru rocks, weeds, or brush with fewer hang ups. These sinkers are made with 95% tungsten and 5% nickel alloy. This makes them 1.8 times as dense as lead and environmentally safe. The tungsten material is dense and allows you to feel every pebble along the bottom. This makes it easier to tell a strike from a nibble.
