I tend to err on the safe side, but the 10 lbs appear to be ok. I prefer not to buy 8 lb weights unless there is a good reason. The cost would obviously buy lots of hoochies!!
When I'm fishing deeper than 15 feet or so, I always use my 10 lb Pancake weight but when it is 15 ft or less I will go all the way down to a 4 lb ball. There is a little blow back but it's not enough to make much difference, plus a 4 lb ball is much easier to use.
