The weights are very useful and widely used for rigs adapted to fishing for snappers or worms. They allow you to move your rig to different depths. When usinglive bait, the weight can be used (depending on the size of the fish used as a livebait) to keep the livebait in a certain area and sometimes prevent it from rising to the surface.

As for worm fishing, weights are used and chosen according to the depth and current of your chosen fishing spot.

They are available in several shapes and weights to match the size of your bait. For fine fishing and to keep a low profile in the face of catfish, you can also find weights in stone or sand colour to make them almost imperceptible.
