Questions, answered

What size do I need to punch a mat?

For a matted canopy of hydrilla or hyacinth, 1 to 2 oz is the working range, and most anglers settle around 1 to 1-1/2 oz. Anything lighter tends to sit on top of the mat rather than break through it.

What about flipping cover I can see through?

Scattered wood, dock posts and grass edges do not need punching weight. 1/4 to 1/2 oz pitches quietly and keeps the fall slow enough that a pressured fish will still eat it.

What sizes do you stock?

3/16, 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 5/8, 3/4, 1, 1-1/4, 1-1/2 and 2 oz. That covers light pitching through heavy punching. Some anglers fish 2-1/2 or 3 oz in the very thickest Florida and California mats; 2 oz is the top of our range.

Does a heavier weight give me a better hookset?

No. Weight controls how the bait gets through cover and how fast it falls. Hookset power comes from your rod, your line and how much slack you pick up.

Why is tungsten smaller than the lead weight I am used to?

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%.
