The Parasite weights and clips system as we presently speak is changing the methods for Bass fishing. The Parasite clip and or weight, once in place, holds the plastic lure in place so it will not move or fly off your hook. The Parasite clips and weights will save Anglers money by saving them lures that normally would have been lost. In addition, it also allows anglers more time to fish - no more stopping to fix your lure.

 

What is great about the Tungsten weights is that they are not harmful to the environment - as compared to leaded products. As more and more States apply laws governing lead usage for fishing products, Tungsten is rapidly becoming more widely used.

 

This product is for everyone that goes fishing for Bass. From novice to tournament anglers, everyone can utilize the advantages the Parasite clips and weights provide..... You wont be sorry that you have either!

Impressions:

 

I was first introduced to Parasite Weights in the Summer of 2006 by friend,

Doug Cavin. When I first began using this product, I was immediately impressed.
I thought "Wow! What an awesome idea. Not only could I cover more water since I didn't have to stop and re-fix my bait." 

 

With this plastic bait weight system, my baits lasted longer on the hook. I also started catching more fish. I quickly became sold on the products. My tacklebox will no longer be without these weights again.

Parasite Weights Scoreboard - (0/5)


Construction & Quality: 
The Construction of each Product is superb. The Clips are a single piece of Wire. The Weights from my perspective have been poured over the wire, and the seal between the two is complete.   5/5

On The Water Uses:  I have yet to break or lose a single parasite weight. The areas I fish are heavily structured ponds with rocks, trees, stumps, you name it!  5/5

Design (ergonomics): This product is designed to help catch fish. It is also a time and money saver.   5/5

Presentation:  You can do just about anything with this product. You can fish it weightless by using the Clips. If you want to use the Weights you can punch it through a weedbed. Its very useful in all applications .   5/5

Price:  Indestructible and have yet to lose a single weight or clip! I got my moneys-worth!  5/5

 

Total Score - - - 5/5
