Versatile Power in a Compact Profile – Tungsten Edge 1/8 oz Worm Weight
Whether you are targeting shallow grass or rocky banks, the Tungsten Edge 1/8 oz Worm Weight delivers unmatched performance. Its compact tungsten build gives you longer casts with pinpoint accuracy while transmitting every vibration from bottom structure. Unlike bulky lead, it slips easily through light cover without spooking fish.

This worm weight is made from 97% pure tungsten, delivering maximum sensitivity. Its smaller size is up to 40% more compact than lead, allowing a more natural presentation. The bore is polished smooth and insert free, keeping your fluorocarbon safe. The matte black coating is chip resistant and stealthy. Each weight is size etched so you always know what you are tying on.

The 1/8 oz size is a tournament staple, providing just enough weight for long casts while maintaining finesse appeal. It helps detect subtle bites when fish are sluggish and turns short strikes into solid hook sets.

Best Applications: Perfect for Texas rigs, finesse worms, and small creature baits around light grass and rocky flats.

Closing Statement: Take control of finesse fishing with the compact edge of Tungsten Edge.

What this size is for

The finesse end of the Texas rig. Light enough to let a creature bait glide down on a slack line, heavy enough to keep contact when the breeze picks up. This is the size for sparse grass, clear water and pressured fish.

  • 4 per pack

Questions, answered

What size worm weight should I use for a Texas rig?

1/4 oz covers most of it. Drop to 1/8 or 1/16 oz in clear water, on a slow fall or over sparse cover, and step up to 5/16 or 1/2 oz for wind, depth or thicker grass.

What sizes do you stock?

1/16, 1/8, 3/16, 1/4, 5/16 and 1/2 oz. There is no 3/8 oz in our worm weight line — the ladder steps 1/4, 5/16, 1/2. If you specifically want 3/8 oz, our flipping weight in that size slides on a worm hook and fishes much the same way.

Should I peg the weight or let it slide?

Peg it when you are fishing cover and want the weight and bait to arrive together — grass, wood, anything the bait can separate behind. Leave it sliding on open bottom, where a free weight lets the bait drift down more naturally after it lands.

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%.

Will the finish chip?

Paint struggles to bond to tungsten because the metal is so hard, which is why cheap coated weights flake on the first rock. Ours carry the EdgeGuard No-Chip finish, and every weight has its size stamped into it, so a scuffed weight is still readable.
