Les-
Sounds like a good idea, thanks.
Tungsten weights .

If the jig goes down as stated in the main beam area it for sure is highly visible, those that think adding sparkle and other items don’t apparently understand how sonar works , solid is solid , braid likely shows up better due to it not being quite as slick as mono , deviation on surfaces will send returns with more visibly.
My 2 cents

I run a quarter ounce egg sinker and sinker stop about 18 inches above my jig. As mentioned previously, due to being a harder material, tungsten jigs and sinkers will produce a brighter return than lead

I agree with bbrown549. I add a 1/4 oz egg sinker approx 12" above the jig and lower the jig down.
I use 20 lb suffix 832 braid , a 1/4 inch bead , a large swivel , then a mono leader. ( complicated , I know , but there is a reason for each component.)
Having two targets when dropping down or pitching seems to help me locate my jig.

I said braid but in actuality it is Nanofil. I bet that since is a filament type line and not actually braided that is why the line is not visible.
Is it possible the braid releases tiny air bubbles as it falls.
