Quick take
Ten 1/16 oz tungsten nail weights that are half the size of lead weights and twice as sensitive for finesse bass rigs.
This is a 10-piece pack of Harmony Fishing tungsten nail weights, each a 1/16 oz bullet in a natural finish. Tungsten is denser than lead, so a piece of this weight is smaller in the bait than a lead one. Each weight is pushed into the tail of a soft plastic to make a neko, wacky or Texas-rigged stick bait fall more vertically through bass cover.
Best for
- Neko rigging finesse worms
- Wacky rigging soft plastics in shallow weeds
- Anglers wanting sensitive rigs
Skip if
