The Grapnel Sinker is used to anchor mainlain to the seafloor. These sinkers are also known as breakaway sinkers. The angler will cast out the sinker first allowing it to sink and find a position for anchor. The heavy sinker will sink quickly preventing the current from dragging it around. Once anchored, the angler can proceed to slide their bait to the stopper ring. Use:
Off the beach on sand, surf fishing
Off piers and wharf
Off the rocks
Material
6 oz lead
Stainless steel legs
