The dropper is supposed to be of lighter lb than anything else, so when you get hung you lose your .12 sinker instead of your $2.00 dicknite
i'll run 12lb off a diver 8-10 the rest of the time and the only time I change hooks is on the rusty ones ya reel up hung on a "snag". It can be an expensive way to fish, if your not losing lures every once in a while your mot getting it in the fishes face...
