Eagle Claw Sinker Round Split Shot 12pk/20ct Size 5

Eagle Claw Sinker Round Split Shot Size 5 is a reliable choice for anglers who need to add weight to their rigs without fuss. These split shot sinkers offer a quick, adjustable way to get your bait or lure down to the depth you're fishing—whether that's for panfish in shallow lakes, trout in moving streams, or anything in between. At size 5, they're proportioned for light to medium presentations where you want enough weight to cast and control your line without overkilling the rig.

Split shot sinkers are a go-to in the tackle box because they're dead simple to use: pinch them onto your line where you need them, and adjust or remove them as conditions change. The round shape rolls smoothly on the line and won't kink it like pinched shot can if you're not careful. Eagle Claw's construction is built to hold, so you won't have pellets popping off mid-cast or mid-fight.

This 12-pack contains 20 individual shot sinkers total, so you've got plenty for a day on the water or to keep spares in your vest. Round split shot is one of those versatile basics that belongs in every angler's kit, especially if you're the type who adjusts your rig on the fly rather than re-tying constantly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is split shot used for in fishing?

Split shot sinkers add weight to your line to help your rig sink to the desired depth and cast distance. They're especially useful when you want to adjust weight quickly without retying your entire setup. Simply pinch them onto your line at the spot you need weighting.

How many sinkers are in this package?

This package contains 20 individual size 5 split shot sinkers distributed across a 12-pack format, giving you plenty for a full day of fishing or to keep backups on hand.

What's the advantage of round split shot over other shapes?

Round split shot seats smoothly onto your line without creating sharp creases or kinks that can weaken mono or braid. This shape also rolls freely, making them easier to adjust or remove compared to other sinker designs.

What fish species can I use these for?

Size 5 split shot works well for panfish, trout, and other light-to-medium tackle situations where you need subtle, adjustable weighting. They're versatile enough for streams, lakes, and ponds—basically anywhere you're fishing lighter presentations.
