what size weight are most of yall using when spider fishing less than 20 feet and what size jig head to you prefer as your go to size?
Most of the time I use a 3/4 oz weight with a 1/16 jig....in higher wind than normal situations I use a 1 oz weight and a 1/8 jig
I always use a 1/2 oz sinker. On some rods I'll use a hook for minnows and a 1/16 oz jig head. I have used 2 jig heads and a 3/8 oz sinker but got tired of keeping the different size sinkers separate. No real difference in how the rods lean down just my preference
1/2 with one 1/8 oz. sickle hook jig and one plain hook or gnat . We are allowed 4 poles so jig is on top on two of poles and gnat /plain hook top of the other two .
I use a 1/2 ounce weight most often,usually with el Aberdeen hooks.When I do use jigheads spiderrigging1/16 and 1/8 are my most used.
Most use a 1/2 oz,but i like 3/4oz myself

I use 1/2 oz sinker and tru turn hooks. More weight would probably be better in my case. Wind catches my boat like crazy.
But I run 8 poles, 16 hooks. I lose a fair amount of tackle.

Fishing 6FOW and less I use a single 1/4 oz jig head. Fishing deeper than that I use 2-1/4 oz jig heads. Sometimes I feel like I need more weight.
I use just enough weight to keep my jig or minnows from floating up at the speed I think I need to be. Depends on the day and what the fish want. When they want it fast I use more weight. When they want it slow I use less.

1/2 oz sinker and 1/8 oz head .....or 1/2 oz double minner rig
I used 3/8 ounce yesterday because the water was slick. I can always go heavier if conditions require. To my way of thinking the lightest you can work with will be best for detecting bites. Of course I am brand new so......
