Until you can get the 6 oz tournament weights you can use the 6 oz sinkers sold in bait shops- I use the ones with a swivel molded into the top- I would still use a safety clip with them and keep an eye on the swivel- the metal swivel can get bent back and forth and will fatigue to the point of possibly breaking after a number of casts- or just use a hatteras storm with the safety clip- not as aerodynamic as the bell or tournament sinker- but gives you the feeling for the timing and weight.

yea,i guess i'll just buy a couple of six ounce trolling weights and clip off one the rings to
make it aero dynamic,and practice the feeling
and timing of the weight.....

I remove the wires from Sputnik sinkers and use them as practice weights.
