Nail Weight/Soft Bait Weighting Recommendations

[Kennedy1055]

Hey guys what are some Nail Weight brands/sizes or other weight customization options you use for weighting your soft baits? 

I've been messing around with weighting Glides and wanted to get into customizing Soft baits too.

Thanks!

I like these, they don't tear up the baits that much and have a nice flat surface in the back to push them in, i use on em on a number of soft baits, hudds, citizens, beast coast, real preys, etc. 

like mike at wcz has mentioned using too heavy of a beast hook is tearing up the new citizens, so the nail weights in the fins are the way to go 

I like the nail weights cause it gives the baits a great horizontal presentation, can correct the nosing up on the retrieve easily, can also help baits run true at faster speeds or fix a bait that maybe is tracking to one side. 

watch this video from Mike, great info about adding weight to soft baits

Lead tape works great wrapped around weightless beast hooks
