Bank sinkers, available at TackleDirect, are a popular choice for bottom fishing. Their tapered hexagonal shape helps prevent them from getting stuck in wrecks, reefs, hard bottom, and other structures. You can find a wide range of sizes, from 1/2 oz to 40 oz, so you'll be able to get the perfect size for your next fishing trip. However, there are certain state laws that restrict the shipment of specific items. In Maine, lead sinkers weighing 1 oz or less (or less than 2.5 inches) cannot be shipped. Massachusetts also prohibits lead sinkers weighing 1 oz or less, as well as lead jigs weighing less than 1 oz. New Hampshire and New York have similar restrictions on lead sinkers and jigs, with weights limited to 1 oz or less in New Hampshire and 1/2 oz or less in New York. In Vermont, lead sinkers weighing 1/2 oz or less are not allowed to be shipped. Keep in mind that if you have any prohibited items in your cart, you won't be able to proceed with checkout.
