Wyatt, That was a great review of sinkers - their pros & cons as well as which are better for different situations and baits. Outstanding! Thank you very much, Larry
An excellent toutorial Wyatt . You and TONY are the foundation of Salt Strong 💪..How about a toutorial on reading the beach . The why’s and where’s of sand bars , where the predators lie and cruise. Where the baitfish hang out , Where the sand fleas live , how to catch them..What is an incoming wave telling you ..Thank you ahead of time.👍 where to look for a rip tide
Love the video. Just FYI, that yeti mic is a “side address” mic. You’ll get better sound if you tilt it vertically and speak into the side of the mic where the capsule is.
I love Sputnik sinkers. Once I dig it in, it doesn't go anywhere. There was however a bad enough current this past week to roll the Sputnik sinker around.
Me too, but I cant stand when the beads fall off while reeling in. Maybe it is just the ones I purchased, but it happens pretty often. Great grip on sand though!
we need to use claw sinkers at my regular beach and many parts of our California Central Coast north of Pt Conception....many pretty rough areas and if bait fishing they can help keep you in the casting area . Draw back is if let to sit too long they really can get buried and be quite difficult to pull loose.
Really good presentation! Always wondered what the purpose of each sinker was. I normally only carried egg, pyramid and spider weights...will add a few more types now.
Learn something new from your channel all the time and always end up with a good catch and enjoy my fishing days more than ever. Thank you again for taking the time to make all these videos, they are appreciated.
Only you are a bit too wrong about wedge shaped sinkers . They are the best to getting stuck in a rock slit ! Because their narrow edge is towards you and it dives in the slit as you pull . Now , any weight will get stuck , unless the rock slit is narrower than the wider part of the lead and this part is towards you . So best weights for rocks are pyramid and cone ! If they don't fit in the slit they slide upon and over it .
Is it fine to use multiple small egg sinkers instead of one big sinker? My rod can cast 5 to 14 grams so I'm planning to use around one to three pieces of 3 gram egg sinkers to stay in the range rated for my rod whilst also having control on the casting weight. I haven't tried it yet although I'd imagine that it would be prone to getting snagged.

One can never stop learning about fishing equipment and methods.thank you.
It's crazy isn't it..? ;)
Great video. I've never seen frog tongue sinkers before and I'm going to buy a batch.

Thanks for the feedback
Oh man you just taught me a ton

Talk about SPARKPLUG sinkers ???
Old school...
The tear drop always get stuck in the rocks I lose them almost every cast.
Great information!
Is it just me or does the storm sinker totally resemble a Wang?...
If it ain’t in your mouth it’s on your mind
Your American pyramid sinkers aren't designed correctly. Aussie pyramids are wider and shorter and hold awesomely.
Thanks for the feedback!

Great rundown Wyatt! Always learning more and more from Salt Strong videos! 💪

Great rundown on sinkers!
Glad this was helpful!
Where's the storm sinker? You had a storm sinker but never discussed it.
what would you recommend for fishing in a river with current and a rocky bottom?
When I fish these conditions I typically use a pretty heavy egg weight (1oz+) and rig it on a Carolina or Clacker Rig. Tight lines!
@@mackrobertsonfishing6213 alrighty Thanks!
Great video. Lots of good information. Thanks

Outstanding 👏👍🏻 Thank you 🙋
What size swivel you are using for the Carolina rig?
Pro tip, that is a side address microphone.
