Comments about Dinsmores Dinsmores Split Shot:

I like dark shot for float fishing for trout. Other brands are often shiny (but they do darken with age). These soft shot crimp easily and do not damage light lines. Very costly for the number you get.

Don't really have anything bad to say. I really like the size of the dispenser. It makes it very easy to carry in just about any pocket and takes up very little room unlike some of the other dispensers I've used. All in all this is a nice product to own.
