Product Information

Full details

Designed for dedicated coarse and pole anglers, Drennan Polemaster In-Line Olivettes offer a streamlined, low-visibility weight solution that ensures your terminal tackle remains stable and snag-resistant. These weights are ideal for anglers targeting larger fish or fishing in challenging, snaggy swims, though users must be comfortable threading their mainline through the center of the weight during rig construction.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these suitable for light float fishing?

Yes, but ensure you select the lighter weight options like 0.30g or 0.80g to avoid over-weighting your float.

Can I use these with braid?

Yes, the in-line design is compatible with braided lines, provided you use a protective bead to buffer the knot.

What is the benefit of the bronze finish?

The non-flash camo bronze finish is designed to mimic natural riverbed tones and reduce visibility to shy fish.

How do I know which weight I have?

Each individual olivette has its weight size clearly engraved on the side for quick identification.

Does the olivette affect the sensitivity of the bite?

The in-line design is highly sensitive because the fish pulls against the float directly through the weight, rather than lifting the weight itself.

Troubleshooting

Weight sliding too freely on the mainline

Use a small rubber float stop or a tiny micro-swivel to trap the olivette in your desired position.

Difficulty threading line through the center

Ensure the line end is clean-cut. If it remains difficult, use a thin baiting needle to guide the line through.

Line damage or fraying after use

Inspect the inner bore of the olivette for any burrs; if found, the unit should be replaced to prevent mainline failure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resists snagging effectively due to the in-line design
  • Discreet camo finish minimizes visibility to fish
  • Easy to identify weight sizes at a glance
  • Excellent for maintaining presentation in moving water

Cons

  • Requires re-threading the mainline to change weights
  • Can be abrasive to light lines if the internal bore is not smooth
  • Requires proper terminal tackle knowledge for optimal mounting

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up these olivettes, thread your mainline through the center hole and secure it using a small swivel or a bead with a float stop to act as a buffer. Ensure you use an appropriate silicone sleeve or buffer bead to protect your knot from impact with the olivette during casting. When storing your tackle, rinse the olivettes in freshwater if you have been fishing in salt or brackish water to prevent any potential corrosion or buildup on the surface finish. Store them in a dedicated tackle box compartment to keep the size markings organized.
