Personally not a huge fan of that needle. It sinks faster than the ss style wadd. I think the small needlse is 2.5 oz. and the larger is in the 3 to 3.5 range. I love the ss wadd but much prefer the hab's medium and large needles to the BM Gibbs wadd. They do cast a mile though. Maybe the best casting needle I have after a loaded super strike.

I would fish them in rough conditions or on sand if i wanted to scrape the bottom. You can keep them up but when is anything really better than an Afterhours 2 oz. needle when you want to fish a needle on or just below the surface. When is the afterhours 3 oz. "loaded needle coming out"? lol. I should probably get some 2.5 oz to try them out first.
