Quick take
Tungsten drop shot weights with round eye for sensitive free rig and drop shot fishing.
This 1/4 oz tungsten drop shot weight has a teardrop body and a closed round eye, so it clips onto the line without a knot. Each weight has its size printed on it, and the pack holds five. It suits anglers rigging drop shot around rocks, weeds and other cover, and it is lead-free for waters that restrict lead.
