    Smile Looking for a particulare kind of lead weights.


    For steelheading out west we used to buy a coil of lead that was hollow.
    You cut off what you needed and poked the line through it etc.
    It slid up n' down the line.
    I have a need for a couple pounds of that but cant find it on Ebay.

    Would any of you have knowledge of the Mfg or a Source for that stuff?
    If I had the 'correct name' I could find it.
    I just wish I could be better at fishing. Or maybe luckier!:D

    I decided it wasn't worth all the shopping on the Internet and bought them from our Local store (Mary Carter) who's been our best fishing store in town for some 60 years. It was only about $8 for the lead and some Twine similar to Spider Wire.

    Thanks for helping though.
    I used to cast Lead bullets for Shilouette shooting. Spend a week collecting lead, and one whole evening out in the Shed with the Coleman stove and a pot.
    Now I'm old...I'll just buy what I want.
