Arlesey Bomb

Arlesey Bomb

This Angling weight was developed by Richard Walker at the lake in Arlesey. It is tear shaped with a loop at the top to attach the line. It's shape makes it aerodynamic to cast, but unlikely to snag on the river or lake bottom. The incorporation of a swivel also prevented the line getting twisted.
