Snapper sinkers are a boat fishing favourite, designed to sink fast and get your baits to the bottom quickly with as little flutter as possible.

The eye at the top of the sinker is used to attach it to the very end of your rig, making this sinker style ideal for paternoster (dropper) rigs, and multi-hook rigs.

You can attach, remove or change your sinker easily using a loop knot tied at the end of your line; simply thread the loop through the eye of the snapper sinker, then push the sinker through the loop and tighten the line, so the loop wraps around the sinker eye.

Reverse that process for quick sinker removal.
