    Split shot weight . Unless they hit real hard I don’t feel the bite most of the time

    Lightest I'd use would be a 1/4oz ... but then I don't Drop Shot.

    And just so you know .... you're not really supposed to have to "feel" every bite. You should be jiggling your bait on a semi-slack line and watching for the line to jump or feel the fish swimming off with the bait. My opinion, anyway.

    with the wind blowing ever time I go watching the line is pretty much out of the question. I'm actually dragging the bait across bottom stopping after a couple cranks
