Sandsinker

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

Sandsinkers are lead-free fishing sinkers made of fabric and filled with sand. Although they do not cast as easily or as far for surf fishing, they are a healthy alternative to lead for fishing from jetties or any situation where casting distance is not a prime consideration.
