You could use a glow jig once down along with a light positioned 5-10 feet above the jig and you could be in business. Most bites are reached as soon as you hit bottom over the right structure

Glenn, that is why I call it my ultimate goal.
I am going to do some research where they have the least current and good swordfishing. If most bites are reached as soon as jig hit the right depth as you said, the jig weight is not a big issue, but if I have to jig 10 lbs for extended time, I know I am in trouble.
