    Offshore fishermen use legal trolling weights of lead that are upwards of 10 pounds.

    When you need to get to the bottom or stay at a specific depth in a swift or moving body of water, size matters.
    If it was easy, anybody could do it.

    On sinkers over 50 pounds OSHA requires the label "Team Lift" showing two caricatures lifting the sinker.
