putty weight?

Tried it, didn't like it

I was wondering if anyone uses putty weight?
Was thinking of going with split shots, but someone mentioned that I may
want to try putty weight.
Says he's never used it before, thought I better ask someone first before
I
purchase.

Several things:
1. In cold weather or after immersion in cold water it hardens; in hot
weather it softens. So if you have a container of the stuff in your vest in
the summer, it will flow down and seal itself to the lid of the container.
You'll need a strong knife, screwdriver, or strong teeth to open it in cold
weather.
2. I still have some of it on the roof of my car from when I laid my rigged
rod on the roof while it was warm three years ago.
3. It's good to be able to use as much or as little as you want
4. I haven't had too many problems with it moving around on the line because
I usually form it into an oblong ball with lots of surface on the line.
