Good practice I have been I charters that painted their sinkers with a rubberized coating to prevent damage to the boat.

My encounters in RI it was weird to see guys in that cabin getting rigs ready with red egg sinker carried in egg cartons. The camouflage explanation was hard to accept since the sinker would appear grey to fish which sinkers are naturally....
