I haven't seen enough unfished ones to be sure. In the few I have the weight hole is readily evident. If you are looking to know how much weight in a large Danny, I have one that I'll probably xray next week.

Yes I'd like to know that. One of them was still sealed in the original bag, I refused to open it but Charley insisted. Still had the masters thumb print on the lip!

I can't imagine a danny swimming properly w/o weight but my last name is Anderson not Pichney
