Water Gremlin Green Bismuth Split Shot earns a best-in-class spot for anglers who want a near-lead density in a true lead-free alloy while keeping price and availability practical for everyday use. Its green finish improves camouflage and the shot’s consistent sizing and crimp reliability make it a simpler swap-in for traditional lead; compared with tungsten options it offers a lower per-gram cost and, versus tin alternatives, a more compact profile without the premium price of tungsten.
