The Bob4Bass Tear Drops are the ultimate in dropshot sinkers. Every design detail in this product has a specific purpose. You will feel the bottom more easily, yet you won't snag except in extreme conditions. Tear Drops are compact, and sink straight without tumbling or twisting. The fully exposed swivel allows them to snake over obstructions, and reduce line twist. Try them and you will see that your dropshotting and dropswimming will be more successful!  Note:   Split shot and other cheap rigs cause severe line twist. It would be better to spend a little extra for Quality Drop Shot Weights then replacing your line frequently.
This what fisherman are saying about the tear Drop:
I like the tear drop the best. The cylindrical ones are weedless no doubt but they come off the bottom to easy due to their weight being distributed evenly along the lenght of the weight. The round dropshot weights are good at keeping the weight on the bottom BUT they are probably the worst in hanging up. So a cross between the round shaped dropshot weights and the cylindrical ones is the tear drop which I think it's the best of both worlds ie weedless and keeps the weight on the bottom so I can shimmy my worm (the plastic one, get yer head out of the gutter ) . Also by using the tear drop my sinker bites have diminished greatly. Those of you that use the cylindrical weights check your sinkers for teeth marks from time to time.
After using both the Tear Drop and the Mojo or JB's Cylinder style. I would lean towards the Tear Drop. Like Triton Mikes statement about loosing the Tdrop, I too have lost more over the cylinder style.

By far, I find the teardrop shape the best.
The teardrop shape gives a better feel of the bottom than any other shape, whether you fish still water or moving water. It is extrememly rare that it hangs, even in grass. It's compact shape doesn't catch current, it sinks straight to the bottom, and its low center of gravity allows better feel of the bottom.
When you dropswim, it doesn't spin and twist your line as badly as the other shapes, and presents a small and unobtrusive profile.
Have you ever
seen anyone good at pitching a dropshot rig under docks? A teardrop shaped weight pitches easily with its low center of gravity leading the way, and it goes straight as an arrow towards its target. They are easy to hold when making an underhanded pitch which will get you well under a dock.
You can catch dropshot fish using a spark plug in some conditions, but the more you dropshot and dropswim, the more you will realize how much of a difference small details make (like using fluorocarbon, the right reel, and teardrop dropshot sinkers).
