    Default looking for 1/16'' dia. lead wire


    hey guys,
    anyone have a source for this. the heaviest i see at fly shops is .035, which i have.
    i know i could double my wraps. but if there was .062 that would would be simpler.
    it's going on a 3/0 hook.

    thx,

    .035 is largest Hareline offers so thinking maybe that is all you will find?
