Guys,
Anybody know of any tackle shops in south county where I can buy 14, 16 and 20 ounce sinkers? Quaker lane doesn't have anything bigger than 8 ounces.

Eben,
I figured they were a possibility. I stopped by there after I left the mist on Sunday, but they were closed. I'll have to try again.

Sandy,
Yep, two 20oz sinkers and my 130s should do for the flatties.

14, 16 and 20 ounce sinkers?

I think those are also known as "anchors"

DonM,
If I get down that way I'll stop by, thanks!

RIJummy,
If you think that a lot you should try tile fishing sometime! We used to use sash weights for that.
