Find Quality Sinkers & Moulds From Anaconda

Sinker moulds are incredibly important features of tackle boxes owned by serious anglers all around Australia. Sinkers are essential components of terminal tackle, and your fishing rig won't perform properly without the appropriate sinker, hook and bait. Getting set up to fish isn't complex, but there are countless ways to configure hooks, sinkers, swivels, lures and other fishing line components.

Choose From A Range Of Different Types Of Fishing Sinkers & Moulds

At Anaconda we offer a wide range of sinkers and moulds to suit your fishing style. These include:

• Pyramid sinkers: This type of sinker gets to the bottom quickly and digs into sand or mud.
• Ball sinkers: These sinkers are popular for running sinker rigs, where the main line is threaded through the sinker and left unattached, so it can move more freely.
• Bean sinkers: Bean sinkers are often preferred over ball sinkers because of their good casting shape that offers better bottom-holding characteristics than the ball sinker, due to the bean's flat sides.
• Egg sinkers: Egg sinkers and diamond sinkers move over rocks and rubble a little easier than other shapes.
• Split shot sinkers: Split shot sinkers are very useful when fishing light in streams or estuaries. They're easy to get on and off and work well when you need a little extra weight.

Fishing Sinkers & Moulds FAQs

What are sinker moulds?

Sinker moulds allow you to create custom sinkers for your specific fishing needs. Sinkers are traditionally made out of lead, and with these moulds you can melt lead and cast your own sinkers if you don't want to choose from Anaconda's range of pre-made sinkers. Sinker mould options include ball sinker mould, Snapper sinker mould and more for all types of fluorocarbon and monofilament fishing lines.

How do I choose a fishing sinker?

The species you're chasing will dictate the sinker you use. When it comes to choosing the best sinkers for your fishing adventure, keep in mind that every Australian angler has an individual style, and every fishing location in Australia is different. You will want to personalise your fishing gear to suit the location and conditions, including using the appropriate fishing sinker.

When correctly balanced, your fishing line, sinker, hook and bait should work as one unit to fool an unsuspecting fish that there is a tasty morsel floundering in the water. Many sinkers will indicate if they're best suited to a particular fish species as well, so keep your target species in mind when choosing your sinker.

How heavy should my sinker be?

The best rule of thumb to follow is to choose the lightest sinker that will still get your bait and hook down to where the fish are. You may need to adjust the weight of the sinker in different current and sea conditions. Choosing the perfectly shaped and weighted sinker is an art form, so be prepared to go through a bit of trial and error before finding the best option on your fishing adventures.
