Fixing a problem that doesn’t exist? Thoughts?

 

Lead bullet weights have always worked fine for me. Slowly transitioning to tungsten just to be environmentally conscious. Probably stick with the same traditional shapes 

Narrower in one profile - wider in another....I'll just stick with standard bullet shape. This looks more like a marketing ploy than a 'fix'.

More like creating a problem that didn't exist. These aren't new as i got some last year from reaction tackle ( i think) and bps sells these as well i believe. Anyway seemed like a good  idea to me, the streamlined look, however as often as not the weight ended up perpendicular to the bait which i personally found annoying. Now if they went back to the drawing board and molded in a screwlock to secure it i might  give them another shot.

Edit: i should add that i was pegging these not sure how they would function unpegged.

I tried some from another vendor and gave them away. 

pretty unnecessary. marketing ploy, but to each their own!

It's not difficult to trim a bit off the tip of a beaver to get the weight to fit seamlessly.... much more seamless than that monstrosity..

Maybe make it a little tougher to fall down into the rocks and get snagged, but I don't usually fish a T-rig on heavy rock anyways.
