I would say that 75% of the time I throw a 3/4 oz. 1 oz. will help on the windy days to keep control of the bait and hold the bottom. I have had days that 1oz on a line then added a 1/4oz split shot on top of that. It worked fine. I do have some smaller 1/2 and 5/8 for the calm days but you know how often we have calm days in April. Brian is right with the sizes. Sometimes they want the smaller ones. The mail thing is keeping control of the jig on the bottom. I keep telling the guys, "Find the Bottom, find the bottom". If you cant feel the bottom you have other issues. Thats another story with many factors.
Yes it is sort of a flat semi oval shaped head.
