Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is tungsten putty sinker used for in carp fishing?
A: Tungsten putty sinker is a soft, mouldable weight used to fine-tune rig presentation in carp fishing. It can be pressed onto swivels, beads, or rig links to pin sections of your rig to the lake or river bed, balance pop-up baits, and prevent tangles during casting. Because tungsten is denser than lead, you need less material to achieve the same weighting effect, keeping your rig more discreet.
Q: Is this tungsten putty safe to handle and reusable?
A: Yes — this tungsten putty is formulated to be non-toxic and is safe for regular handling during fishing sessions. It remains pliable and can be remoulded, added to, or removed from your rig multiple times, making it a cost-effective and environmentally considerate choice compared to single-use split shot weights.
Q: How much putty do I need for a typical carp rig?
A: The amount depends on the rig style and how much buoyancy you need to counterbalance. For a standard pop-up rig, a small pea-sized piece (0.5–1g) is usually sufficient to critically balance the bait. The 22g block gives you plenty of material for dozens of rigs across multiple fishing sessions.
