Why do urchin baits need their own terminal tackle listing?
Short answer
Because the hardware is what makes the bait work, and the rigging guides say so. Urchin guidance sets nail weights at 1/32 to 1/16 oz inserted into the body, mushroom heads at 1/16 to 1/8 oz, and drop-shot weights at 1/8 to 3/8 oz.
In detail
US titles even published dedicated terminal tackle round-ups for the shape, which is the clearest signal that the small hardware sells alongside the plastic.
