Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for wacky or neko rigging, so it is a specialized weight rather than a general-purpose sinker.
- Installation requires pliers to hold the head while you screw the worm on, so rigging is a little more involved than a simple slip-on weight.
- Pack count varies by size: 1/32 oz and 1/16 oz come 10 per pack, while 1/8 oz comes 9 per pack.
- Lead construction may be a consideration for anglers who prefer non-lead terminal tackle.
