Description
The Reins TG Tungsten Slip Sinker — Super Heavy Weight is the 1.5–2.5 oz range of Reins’ tungsten slip sinker lineup — built for punching heavy matted vegetation, deep water Texas rigs, and any application where maximum weight in a minimum profile is required. Made from 95% tungsten / 5% nickel alloy with a specific gravity of 18.2, each sinker is 40% smaller than its lead counterpart at the same weight and 1.8× as dense. The inner core system protects your line from abrasion inside the sinker bore. Available in Black and Green Pumpkin for color-matching to your worm or trailer. 1 per pack.
Key Features
- 95% Tungsten / 5% Nickel Alloy — Specific Gravity 18.2 — The 95% tungsten composition delivers a specific gravity of 18.2 — 1.8× denser than lead; the higher density means the sinker is 40% smaller than a lead sinker at the same weight, producing a more compact profile that punches through matted vegetation more easily and presents a smaller, less intrusive weight on the Texas rig; the nickel alloy binder makes the sinker environmentally safe compared to pure lead.
- 40% Smaller Profile — Better Punch-Through & Sensitivity — The compact tungsten profile punches through matted vegetation more efficiently than a lead sinker of the same weight; the smaller nose cuts through the mat cleanly and the higher density carries the bait through faster; the higher density also transmits bottom contact and subtle bites more clearly through the line, making it easier to detect bites in heavy cover where feel is critical.
- Inner Core Line Guard — Protects Line from Abrasion — The inner bore of the sinker features an inner core system that protects the line from being abraded by the tungsten as the sinker slides; tungsten is harder than lead and can cut line without a line guard; the inner core prevents line wear that could cause break-offs on big fish.
- Unique Shape — Reduced Hang-Ups — The sinker’s unique shape is designed to reduce hang-ups on bottom structure; the profile deflects off rocks, wood, and debris more efficiently than a standard bullet weight, keeping the bait moving through cover.
- Color-Matched — Black & Green Pumpkin — Available in Black and Green Pumpkin to match the color of your worm or trailer; color-matching the sinker to the bait creates a more natural, cohesive presentation that reduces the visual contrast between the sinker and the bait.
- 1 Per Pack — Super Heavy Weight Range — One sinker per pack in the super heavy weight range (1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 oz).
Weight Selection Guide
| Weight | Best Application |
|---|---|
| 1.5 oz | Punching light to moderate mats, deep Texas rig (20–30 ft), heavy current |
| 2.0 oz | Punching moderate to heavy mats, deep Texas rig (30–40 ft), strong current |
| 2.5 oz | Punching the heaviest mats, extreme depth (40+ ft), maximum current penetration |
Best For
- Punching Heavy Matted Vegetation — The primary application for super heavy slip sinkers; the compact tungsten profile punches through thick matted hydrilla, milfoil, and lily pad mats more efficiently than lead; use 2.0–2.5 oz for the heaviest mats where a lighter sinker won’t penetrate; pair with a heavy flipping hook and a compact creature bait or chunk trailer.
- Deep Water Texas Rig — Use the 1.5–2.0 oz for deep water Texas rig applications (20–40 ft) where getting the bait to the bottom quickly is critical; the compact tungsten profile sinks faster than lead at the same weight and the higher sensitivity helps detect bites at depth on heavy fluorocarbon.
- Heavy Current — The super heavy weight range is effective in strong current situations (river fishing, tidal fisheries) where lighter sinkers are swept off the bottom; the compact profile also creates less drag in current than a larger lead sinker of the same weight.
