As the name suggests, the ball sinker is shaped like a ball, with a small hole through the center of the sinker, allowing the sinker to run freely up and down the line. Most often used in Singapore waters for the running sinker rig or the knocker rig.

EPIC Fishing Crew Tips:

Captain Rusydi - Fishing in Changi's waters, the running sinker rig is my favorite and easily the best performing rig for me. I use a size 4 (28 grams) to size 6 (42 grams) ball sinker most of the time, tied directly to a size 3/0 to 5/0 octopus beak hook for maximum sensitivity.
