What your mentioning would be a drifting situation where you run a bouncer in a rod holder that keeps tagging NOT dragging bottom. And casting/retrieving a weapon at the same time. That you count down to cover different depths. Covering the water column.
A weapon is basically a shortened harness with an egg sinker for weight. I make mine around 16" Typically use 1/2oz or 5/8oz egg sinker. !/4 or 3/8 in shallow water.


You tye a large loop at the top of your harness and put a small bead in that loop that stops the sinker from sliding down the harness. The clip from your main line keeps the sinker from sliding up your line.
