Nako Tungsten BOOM Skirt Weights
When it comes to fishing heavy cover or targeting bass in complex structure, a streamlined, effective presentation can make all the difference. Nako’s Tungsten BOOM Skirt Weights combine the compact profile of a flipping weight with the added action of a skirt. The compact design slips in and out of cover with minimal snagging. Lighter models can be trimmed and used like finesse jigs. The skirt is hand-tied with durable wire for lasting performance. The design improves hook-up ratio and allows pairing with any hook size. By varying tungsten weight, line diameter, or skirt material, you can control the fall rate. Made from 97% pure tungsten, they offer twice the sensitivity of lead. Each weight is laser-etched for quick identification, polished to protect line, and completely lead-free. Durability, sensitivity, and versatility make the BOOM Skirt Weight a must-have for flipping, punching, or finesse fishing.
Why You Should Fish Nako Tungsten BOOM Skirt Weights?
When it comes to fishing heavy cover or targeting bass in complex structure, a streamlined, effective presentation can make all the difference. Nako’s Tungsten BOOM Skirt Weights are designed to give you that edge, combining the compact profile of a flipping weight with the added action and attraction of a skirt.
One of the first things you’ll notice is how compact the overall setup becomes. Compared to traditional flipping weights, the BOOM Skirt Weight creates a cleaner presentation that slips in and out of cover with minimal snagging. This makes it an excellent choice for fishing through grass, reeds, or timber where other rigs tend to hang up.
These skirt weights also offer surprising versatility. Lighter models can be trimmed down and used like finesse jigs, giving you a subtler presentation in clear water or pressured conditions. The skirt itself is hand-tied with durable wire, not a rubber band, ensuring it stays in place fish after fish without degrading over time. This is a detail many anglers overlook, but it can be the difference between a lure that performs for one trip and one that lasts for seasons.
The design improves your hook-up ratio compared to traditional punch weights. By separating the skirt weight from the hook, the hook is free to move and set more effectively, avoiding the common problem where weight and hook pull in the same direction. Even better, you can pair any hook size you want with the weight — whether that’s a small weight and a large hook for a subtle profile, or the reverse for a different presentation.
Control over your fall rate is another key advantage. By varying the tungsten weight, your line diameter, or even the skirt material, you can create a natural, straight drop or a spiraling fall that triggers more reaction bites. The high-density 97% tungsten composition means these weights are twice as sensitive as traditional lead, allowing you to detect every bottom change and subtle strike. Every BOOM Skirt Weight is laser-etched with its weight for quick identification, and precisionpolished to protect your line from wear. They’re also completely lead-free, making them a safer choice for the environment without sacrificing performance.
In short, the Nako Tungsten BOOM Skirt Weight offers durability, sensitivity, and unmatched versatility. Whether you’re punching mats, flipping wood, or downsizing for finesse fishing, this is a skirted weight built to perform under any conditions — and to keep performing trip after trip.
