I asked the same question. Yankee Troller replied

"Just a split shot 8' in front of a spoon flat lined"

It is an "old school tactic" that serves two main purposes - it keeps the spoon or stickbait under the surface and also can keep weeds or debris off the lure itself as well (usually placed about 2 - 4ft above lure for that).

Poor mans' short leadcore....with less hassle. As stated this technique has been around forever. In the eighties the usage of different weighted rubber-core sinkers ahead of a bait was standard practice in the spring and early summer. This method will never go out of style.
