Quick take
These bullet-shaped tungsten flipping weights are made for punching a Texas or Carolina rig through matted weeds and heavy cover. The 1-1/2 oz size comes two to a pack in a Never Chip Black finish, with the size stamped on each piece. Bass anglers who flip thick vegetation will find the dense tungsten body compact for its weight.
