I took it to Dick's Sporting Goods to get line put on so I figured I was good. That's why I was wondering if I need a certain weight on there. Am I supposed to add wght to that type of lure ???? sorry...a bit inexperienced

I keep getting line tangles on my fishing rod. It's nothing special or expensive, rod/reel combo I got for $25 bucks. I try fishing from shore with 4" grub & jig head. Is there not enough weight with the jig head ? is there a "rule-of-thumb" to go by as far as how heavy jig has to be according to size of grub. Any advice gladly accepted & very much appreciated. Thx
