Tungsten Worm Weights w/ Weight Pegs [Select Size, Qty]
$6.99 - $16.99
- Tungsten is nearly twice as dense as lead, which means your weight is now about 50% smaller in size for the same weight as a lead sinker. This more compact size creates a more weedless/snagless profile, making it easier than ever to fish heavy cover like grass, weeds, rocks, laydowns, docks, and more.
- The increased density offered by tungsten over lead provides greater sensitivity, as the weight transmits more vibration up your line, allowing you to feel the bottom like never before.
- Harmony's Tungsten Worm Weights feature a smooth, polished inner bore - eliminating line fray without the need for an insert, making them safe for use with all monofilament, flourocarbon, copolymer, and braided lines. The cupped rear design allows your hook eye to sit recessed into the back of the weight, protecting your line's knot and creating a more streamlined, weedless profile.
- Perfect for texas rigging and carolina rigging soft plastics like creatures, worms, senkos, craws, lizards, and more.
- Each pack includes one set of ten (10) Weight Pegs to keep your weight pegged in place in heavy cover situations.
Tungsten Skirted Punch Weight MSS Kit (2 Pack, Modular Skirts)
$10.29 - $16.29
- Harmony's Tungsten Punch Weight Modular-Skirt-System™ Kit Includes two (2) Tungsten Skirted Punch Weights (also called slither rigs) and four (4) skirts. This kit has you covered with 4 skirt colors for any jig fishing situation.
- Tungsten weights are almost twice as dense as lead. That means your tungsten weight is nearly half the size of a comparable lead weight. Smaller weights mean fewer hangups and easier punching through heavy cover and mats, allowing you to spend less time unhanging lures and more time fishing. Because tungsten weights are more dense than lead, they transmit vibration better up your line for greater sensitivity when fishing hard bottom or rock/wood cover areas.
- Skirted punch weights are incredibly effective in thick cover. More streamlined than jigs, punch weights slide through heavy grass and mats with less hangups. When you need to penetrate heavy cover to get your bait in front of the big ones, you need a skirted punch weight. Simply slide your line through the weight's hole, tie on an offset, EWG, or flipping hook, and attach your favorite soft plastic bait to start fishing Harmony's skirted punch weight / slither rig.
