Understanding Sinkers & Weights

As you shop for tackle, one of the biggest challenges for some anglers is understanding weights. Some sites use grams, others use ounces, and some flip flop. We're guilty of that as well. Here's a quick chart of some common weights with conversions you'll see:

Grams Ounces Classification
0.4/0.5 1/64 Micro Finesse
0.9 1/32 Micro Finesse
1.8 1/16 Micro Finesse & Finesse
3.5 1/8 Finesse
7 1/4 Finesse

 

Hope this helps!
