BNR Dave's Tangle Free Stainless Steel Stick Weights 3 Pack - 1/2 oz

Overview

Meet the next generation of stick weights from BNR. Built to balance simplicity with performance, these weights use uncoated stainless steel to deliver a sensitive, reliable feel across popular long- and short-range rigs. In a practical 3-pack with a 1/2 oz profile, you’ll have versatile options for different water depths and rig setups, while maintaining a streamlined rig that moves with current rather than snagging on it.

Designed with real-world fishing in mind, these weights aim to combine the energy and immediacy of steel with a tangle-resistant footprint. The result is a lead-free option that supports a variety of techniques, from controlled drops to steady bottom work, without sacrificing sensitivity or descent speed.

Key advantages

• Lead-free construction for responsible gear choices.
• Uncoated stainless steel provides durability and a clean, responsive feel.
• Moving swivel up-top delivers telegraphic sensitivity and quick reaction to bites.
• The “pinball effect” helps the weight tick along the bottom and move with currents.
• Snag- and tangle-resistant design reduces hang-ups in structure-rich spots.
• Three weights per pack with a versatile 1/2 oz size for a range of rigs.

Design highlights

• Made of uncoated stainless steel for long-lasting performance.
• Top-mounted swivel enables precise telegraphic feedback and rig mobility.
• Increased sensitivity thanks to steel energy and streamlined profile.
• Lead-free solution that still delivers effective down-depth performance.
• The “pinball effect” supports steady bottom contact while allowing quick descent.

On-water performance

In the field, the combination of stainless steel construction and a moving top swivel can enhance feel during drops, drifts, and bottom-bouncing. The 1/2 oz weight offers a balanced choice for varied water conditions, helping your rig reach depth quickly and maintain position in gentle currents or still water. The design emphasizes smooth bottom contact and consistent movement, providing actionable feedback through the rod and line without excessive snagging.

Techniques to try

• Drop-shot: steady depth control with crisp cue responses.
• Drift and drift-bouncing: responsive line feel as the weight travels with water flow.
• Float and bobber-dog: reliable sink rate and bottom contact for precise bait placement.
• Bottom-bouncing: consistent bottom tick with enhanced sensitivity.

Care and compatibility

Rinse after use to maintain rust-free performance, and pair with compatible rigs for a clean, snag-resistant setup. The lead-free design supports a range of lines and baits while preserving sensitivity and control on the water.
