American-Made Egg Sinkers in Every Size You Need

Egg sinkers are the most versatile weight in your tackle box. The oval shape slides freely on your line, letting fish pick up the bait without feeling resistance. These are poured in the USA from clean, high-grade lead with a smooth center bore that will not nick your mono or fluoro. Sizes run from 1/8oz for inshore trout rigs up to 16oz for deep dropping offshore. The small sizes (3/4oz and under) come in 50-count bags so you always have spares. Larger sizes sell individually.

Stop Losing Fish to Sinkers With Rough Bores

Imported sinkers with rough center holes fray your line every cast. You do not notice until a good fish breaks off at the weight. These USA-poured egg sinkers have a polished bore that protects your line trip after trip.

At bulk pricing starting under $0.99 each, there is zero reason to gamble on bargain bin imports. Buy the 50-count bags for the sizes you burn through and individual heavy weights for specialized bottom rigs.

Clean USA Lead

Poured domestically from high-grade lead with consistent density across every sinker. No voids, no rough seams, no recycled mystery metal. Each sinker drops true and holds its rated weight within tolerance.

Smooth Bore Design

The center hole is drilled clean so your line passes through without abrasion. That matters on light fluoro and mono where a rough bore can cost you a fish. Free-sliding action lets a fish mouth the bait before it feels any weight.

Full Size Range

14 sizes from 1/8oz to 16oz covers everything from creek fishing to deep wrecks. Grab 50-packs in the small sizes you burn through and individual heavy weights for specialized bottom rigs. No overbuying, no running short.

How to Rig an Egg Sinker

1. Thread your main line through the center bore of the egg sinker

2. Add a small plastic bead below the sinker to protect your knot

3. Tie on a barrel swivel

4. Attach your leader and hook to the other end of the swivel

5. Cast out and let the sinker take your bait to the bottom

6. When a fish picks up the bait, line slides through the sinker freely

What size egg sinker should I use for bottom fishing? +
Match the sinker to the current and depth. 1-3oz handles most reef and wreck spots in under 100 feet. Go heavier in strong current. Our bottom fishing guide breaks down weight selection by depth.
Are egg sinkers good for Carolina rigs? +
They are the go-to weight for a Carolina rig. The sliding design is exactly what you want. A 1/2oz to 1oz egg sinker paired with a bead and swivel is the classic setup. See our sinker weight guide for rigging details.
How are the 50-count bags packaged? +
All sizes 3/4oz and under come in resealable bags of 50 sinkers. That is enough to last multiple trips. Check our bank sinkers if you need a different shape for snaggy bottom.
Can I use egg sinkers for trolling? +
Yes. Thread them on your main line above a swivel for a simple trolling rig. The sliding action lets fish hit without feeling the weight. Our trolling for beginners guide covers inline weight setups.
What is the difference between egg sinkers and bank sinkers? +
Egg sinkers slide on your line and have a rounded profile. Bank sinkers attach to a dropper loop and have a tapered shape that resists snagging. Use egg sinkers for sliding rigs and bank sinkers for fixed-weight bottom rigs.
Are these sinkers pure lead? +
Yes, clean high-grade lead poured in the USA. No fillers, no recycled scrap. Consistent weight and smooth finish on every sinker. See our full sinker weight guide for material comparisons.
What is the biggest egg sinker you carry? +
16oz. That handles deep dropping and heavy current situations offshore. If you need pyramid shapes for surf fishing, check our pyramid sinkers.
Do egg sinkers work for inshore fishing? +
The 1/8oz to 1/2oz sizes are perfect for redfish, trout, and flounder rigs. Slide one on your line for a natural presentation. See our redfish guide for setup tips.
