Bass Dozer ICAST 2003

ICAST welcomed several new Mojo sinker styles for 2004. Unlike Austin Powers however, these new sinkers help you not to lose your Mojo. All new sinker styles feature the slender cylindrical shape of the original Mojo sinker - one of the best sinker shapes to get soft bait rigs through weeds, rocks and snags. First, the new RockHopper sinker excels in snagless fishing in areas with vast amounts of rocks. "It may not look like a lot of technology has gone into the RockHopper, but this sinker is full of scientific leverage principles, and so unique that we've got a patent pending," says Mojo Lure Company president Larry Glavinich. "Best of all, it's simple to use," smiles Larry Glavinich proudly. Second is the new Rig Saver sinker. Its main advantages are that the Rig Saver sinker can be attached or disattached to a Carolina rig instantly without cutting the line or disassembly of the rig. If the Rig Saver sinker snags, the weight will release from your line at approximately 4 lbs of pressure, allowing you to retrieve your complete rig (minus the weight). And unlike other Carolina rig sinkers, the line runs freely through a wire ring so it is not subject to line-weakening abrasion by the sinker or banging against the knot by the sinker. The third new item, the Pineapple Swivel Down Shot sinker has a line-cushioning knotless swivel clip. One annoying problem with other swivel clips, they can cut your line as you rig up. But Mojo's Pineapple Swivel is designed to help prevent cutting the line during the rigging process. All Mojo sinkers feature a metal alloy mix designed to make a high pitch fish-attracting ringing noise upon contact with the bottom or when using beads in your rigging to add noise to your presentation. www.mojolures.com 800-474-mojo.
