I get what you mean about sticking to lighter weights to avoid losing gear, especially in places with eelgrass or rocks. I’ve been using lighter heads most of the time too, but I’ve found that when fishing deeper or in stronger currents, going a bit heavier really helps. I’ve had better luck with 3/4oz to 1oz heads for calicoes; they stay in place and get down to where the fish are quicker. I guess it’s all about finding that balance for the conditions you’re in, but I think heavier heads could definitely help, especially for bigger fish.
