Depends on tides & conditions such as weed etc.- uptiding is one way so a rig mentioned using an uptide rod suits strong tide and down tide up to 6oz depending on depths.

Where I fish for tope - its either as above or in the deep gullies where uptide is a waste of time. 20-30 if you have to use lead above 6 oz.

The gullies are full of rough ground & so a bit of power to get the bait etc out the bottom is sometimes needed due to the sea growth below.
