Clip on sinker

[The Incredible Hull]

Anyone know of some sort of "clip on" type sinkers?

I get lazy changing/re-tieing the sinkers when the current/tide changes.

I'm looking for something where I can easily clip on and off without having to cut my line.

I've done a search on google but couldn't find much.

look up the ezy rig style clips, they do the job and are cheap as chips. Alternatively just tie a dropper loop and loop snapper style sinkers on to your rig.

Awesome thanks!

In strong current, with this type of clip on sinker rigg, would it be better to just drop the line in, instead of casting to avoid tangles?

yeh you can get a clip rig, the clip is a sliding plastic tube that you tie on when you rig up if you want to limit how far it goes put a small split shot on up the line, they work pretty well i normally pick them up from not sure if we can say so PM me if you have trouble finding them but if you head to any good (if not good big will have them ....that in itself is a pretty good hint)

cheers noah

I have what dicko suggested, easy to find in local tackle shops.

If you want to have your sinker on the bottom or rigged at a certain spot how about tying a loop in your line where you want your sinker then pre-rigging your sinkers with snap locks attached for a quick change.
