The Mike Iaconelli Tungsten Drop Shot Ball Weights are designed for fishing sandy, gravely or silty lake floors. Made from tungsten, a much denser material than lead, they have a more compact profile in the water for a stealthier presentation. Tungsten is also significantly harder than lead, which provides increased sensitivity and means you can better detect anything your weight comes into contact with. Feel the bottom and detect bites with the VMC “Ike” Drop Shot Ball Weights - the drop shot weights Michael “Ike” Iaconelli uses when he’s on tour and fishing for fun.
