FTM Kugelblei Sinker

FTM Kugelblei Sinker — The All-Round Ball Lead for Every Setup

The FTM Kugelblei (ball sinker) is one of the most widely used lead weights in angling — and for good reason. Its classic spherical shape and clean-bored hole make it a reliable, versatile choice for a wide range of techniques and species.

Versatile Performance Across Techniques

The ball shape allows the sinker to roll naturally along the bottom with minimal snagging, making it equally at home in still water, slow-flowing rivers, and light current. Whether you're float fishing, ledgering, or running a simple bottom rig, the Kugelblei adapts without fuss.

Clean Bore for Smooth Line Flow

FTM pays attention to the basics: the precise, clean-bored hole ensures the line runs smoothly through the sinker without fraying or catching. This matters most when fishing sensitive bites or using thinner lines, where any resistance at the weight can cost you a take.

Choose the Right Variant

The FTM Kugelblei is available in a range of weights to match different depths, currents, and casting distances. Note that the quantity per pack varies depending on the weight selected.

• 804802 / 804803 / 804804 / 804805 — lighter weights: Ideal for shallow water, slow currents, and finesse rigs; suited to roach, bream, and perch on light tackle

• 804806 / 804807 / 804808 / 804809 — mid-range weights: Good all-rounders for medium-depth ledgering and float rigs; works well for tench, carp, and barbel

• 804810 — Round shape variant: Alternative geometry for specific rig presentations or personal preference

• 804812 / 804813 — heavier weights: Best for stronger currents, long-distance casting, or anchoring bait firmly on the bottom; suitable for larger carp and catfish setups
