Putty Weights: perfect balancing and weighting
Putty Weights are a versatile and indispensable tool for every carp angler. They are flexible, reusable, and easy to use. You use them to subtly weight your leader or hooklink or to perfectly balance your pop-up rig. Thanks to the soft texture, you can shape the weight exactly as you want – without knots or extra parts.
What are putty weights?
Putty Weights are a soft, malleable material with a high specific gravity, allowing you to easily add weight to your rig. It is kneaded directly onto the line, hook shank, or leader and stays firmly in place. Putty Weights are mainly used for balancing pop-ups, weighting zig rigs, or to keep your leader tight against the bottom.
Advantages of putty weights
-
Subtle presentation: Perfect for 'pinning' your leader against the bottom, making you less visible.
-
Pop-up balance: Ideal for letting your hook bait just hover or slowly sink.
-
Reusable: Easy to remove and reuse.
-
Flexible in use: Shape it exactly as you want, anywhere on your rig.
Tungsten putty weights
For extra weight in a compact size, there is also tungsten putty weights. Tungsten has a higher density than standard putty weights, allowing you to achieve the same effect with less volume. Tungsten putty weights are perfect for anglers who want to refine their presentation to the maximum, especially in clear water or pressured waters.
