Ok, I bought 4 Ladner shrimp pots. Now I need to get the drop lines. Do you buy the poly or nylon and use line weights, or buy weighted crab line?

Also, how much ballast do you use to keep them on the bottom in a current? What do you use? I want to avoid re-bar because of the rust and electrolysis factor. I'm thinking lead pipe wire tied to the outside edge. Other suggestions?
