Simple Nipple Weights
designed and made by circe



From the fishing tackle shop you will need …
2 each of your choice of weight
swivelsnaps
fishing line (or florist's wire)


Fishing weights come in all shapes and weights.
Ones designed for sea fishing are the heaviest and most varied in shape. The larger ones are made of lead.
Ones designed for course fishing tend to be smaller and many are now lead-free.


The method of making the nipple weights is simply to tie the weights to the swivelsnaps using fishing line or florist's wire. Tie them securely but loosely so that there is some swing movement.


The clip of the swivelsnap can be attached directly to piercing rings …….


or …….


onto any part of a nipple clamp chain
