Is there a particular weight you like to use? I fish a lot of ponds with thick vegetation is there a weight shape that works better than others? Can you skip a free rig?
Lastly what bait would would you start with?
Ibock
PB between 8-9 pounds.

I prefer a 4 pound lead weight on a “free rig”.
Small Halibut, Cod, Salmon and Arctic Grayling are money for baits.
Good luck! Oh, tear drop or hanging roids weights work best for punching grass.

If you truly want the very best free rig weights look for the ones made from Unobtainium but they're pricey.
