The Mojo "Rig Saver" Sinker
The lowly sinker is one of the pieces of terminal
tackle that has seen every possible shape, and design, each one, for
it's own
purpose, although many are used for more than one, they each really
only
excel in a few uses.
Sinkers are used for three reasons These are, increased casting distance, getting the bait down to the desired level, and holding the bait in place, in current.
Although in many cases these are just determined by the weight of the sinker, and almost any design will work, as long as it weighs enough. Some design's allow for less weight to be used for certain applications, such as fishing on the bottom, in current. These weights, (like the pyramids, for salt water fishing) actually dig into the sandy bottom, and have flat sides to retard the weight from rolling). "All" designs , have one major draw back when fishing in water where the bottom is full of snags, " hanging up on structure " some, more than others, but they will "all" hang up in rocks. This very structure is where most fish will be found, and where most rigs are lost, because the weight hangs, and the fisherman must break off his rig, as well as some of his fishing line, as the line will break at it's weakest point, but regardless of where it breaks, in most cases, you at least loose you lure, or hook, along with your weight, requiring you to re-rig, before you can get back out there to try again.
In the past, there has never been one sinker design for all purposes, one that will work in every situation, and not cause you to loose your rig, when that sinker hangs in structure. There is such a sinker now, the Mojo, "Rig Saver Sinker" from the people who first brought you the Slip Shot, and the advanced Drop Shop weight , has taken their slim weight design, and come up with the ULTIMATE sinker, one that rarely hangs, but when it does, you only loose your weight, you save both your fishing line, and you rig. This weight also allows for a smaller amount of weight, to hold you bait in current, .and it will not roll. and twist your line in current, and it's low profile reduces water resistance, and it's design allows it to grab the bottom, yet come loose when you want it to. The Mojo "Rig Saver" can be used in every fishing application, it can be used as a slip or stationary sinker, it can be used for live, or artificial baits, high/low/no current, smooth bottom, or one that is filled with snags.
I have been field testing the Rig Saver, in every possible fishing situation, and it has performed admirably, not once have I lost a rig, even in the worst possible fishing locations for snagging a weigh up . like below damns, in heavy current, and many rocks, it is true I have lost some weights, but when I have fished these locations with other weights, I have lost many complete rigs, and many yards of line. I have also used it for drop shoting and Boomerang fishing, and have never lost a Boomerang rig, or lure, something I have lost many of, with out the "Rig Saver" sinker. (With the Rig Saver, you can use a smaller weight for Boomerang fishing)
In my opinion, the Rig Saver Sinker is the answer to every fisherman's needs for bottom fishing, never before has there been a sacrificial weight designed to meet every fishing application, from a slip sinker, to a dropper rig sinker, from small steams with heavy current, to surf fishing with a tide flow, from Carolina rigging, to drift trolling, the Rig Saver Sinker, from Mojo, is the only sinker you will ever need, and you will rarely loose your rig again, never again if just the weight hangs.

The "Rig Saver" replaces, bell, bank, egg,
bullet, and pyramid sinkers, . It has the best features of all these
sinkers,
with none of their draw backs.
How, the Rig Saver fits every
fisherman's needs, in a single weight.
The Rig Saver is based on the cylindrical weight
design, that "Mojo" made famous, and many have copied, with a center
hole, that can be used as slider, or Slip Shot weight, but what makes
the Rig Saver different, is the wire that comes with it, this wire
converts the weight into the true "Rig Saver" (the Rig Savor can be
used without the wire,
as a slip. or Slip Shot sinker)
This wire is stainless spring steel, that can be slid over your line, after you have tied your hook on, then slid into the weight, the ends are bent back, and cut short, for fishing in a no current situation, bent at 180 degrees, and left long for fishing in current,. this single, doubled, wire will pull out, if the weigh ever hangs, at slightly over 4 lbs of pull, over 8 lbs if two wires are used, thus saving your rig, you only loose your weight, and that can be quickly replaced without re-rigging. Due to the long cylindrical design, these weights hang less than bell, egg, or bank sinkers, yet will do the same job
This is the first ever, sacrificial weight on the market. that can be used as a slip sinker
When the wire is left long for fishing in current, the wire is used to deliberately catch on bottom irregularities, but due to the nature of the wire, it will turn loose from these with less than 4 lbs of pull, not causing the lose of the weight or the rig, the weight will only come off if the lead portion is
snagged hard, not the wires alone.
In current, a smaller Rig Saver sinker can be used than normally used of any other weight design, because the wires are designed to grab anything on the bottom, like a boat anchor, these will hold the weight, and the bait in place, allowing the Rig Saver to hold like a weight much heaver, yet come loose, from the snag, and spring back to shape, when the fisherman wants it to..
When two, "doubled" wires are used, you "can" (if you wish to) have four leg's, these can dig into soft bottoms like sand and mud
