Pyramid, 2 oz usually or spider weights. Pyramids' flat sides limit the roll. Spider weights don't roll, period.

spider weights. They hold in the sand no matter the wave action if you have the right size. The only thing that defeats them is seaweed and I don't have an answer for that when surf fishing.

Yeah the seaweed can mess up a day or even a full weekend of fishing.
