Nail Weights

Common questions

What size nail weight for a Neko rig?

3/64 oz is the size most anglers settle on. Go to 1/64 or 1/32 oz in clear, shallow or heavily pressured water where you want the slowest possible fall, and 1/16 or 7/64 oz when you are fishing deeper, into wind, or in current.

What sizes do you stock?

1/64, 1/32, 3/64, 1/16 and 7/64 oz.

How do I keep the nail weight from pulling out?

Insert it into the fattest part of the bait so there is plastic all around it, and push it fully below the surface. On a soft stick bait an O-ring at the hook takes the strain off the plastic and the whole rig lasts noticeably longer.

What is the difference between a Neko rig and a wacky rig?

Both hook a stick bait through the middle. A Neko rig adds a nail weight in one end so the bait stands nose-down on the bottom and shakes. A wacky rig is unweighted or carries the weight at the hook, so it falls flat and shimmies on both ends.

Why is tungsten smaller than lead?

Our weights are a 97% tungsten alloy at roughly 18.0 g/cm3 against lead's 11.34, so about 1.6 times denser. The same ounce takes up around 37% less volume. Worth knowing that is volume, not length — the weight is roughly 14% shorter and narrower, not 37%.

 

Nail Weights

Tungsten Edge nail weights are designed for finesse anglers who want precise weight placement and a natural fall when fishing soft plastics. Made from 97% pure tungsten, our nail weights feature a compact profile that delivers better feel and control than traditional lead, allowing for subtle, controlled presentations.

Built with EdgeGuard™ No-Chip technology, these tungsten nail weights resist chipping and cracking while maintaining a smooth finish for easy insertion. Tungsten’s density keeps the weight small yet effective, helping preserve the action of your bait while improving sensitivity and bite detection.

Nail weights are ideal for Neko rigs, wacky rigs, stick baits, and finesse worms, especially when targeting pressured bass around docks, grass edges, shallow cover, and hard structure. By inserting weight directly into the bait, anglers can fine-tune fall rate and action without compromising presentation.

Available in multiple sizes to match varying conditions and techniques, Tungsten Edge nail weights give anglers the flexibility to adjust their finesse approach and stay one step ahead.

Upgrade your finesse rigging with premium tungsten nail weights built to perform when it matters most.

No chip. No excuses.
