excellent, thank you.....like I said I wasnt sure how it worked, so now I know.....guess it makes sence for it to work like that...the lead may melt the plastic/fiber when poured.....do you know if they are all like that or do some pour the head with the weed guard & hook all ready in the mold?? more so curious than anything now.....I always tied em on and fished with them, never really gave much thought as to how they are made, until now.....thanks again, God bless
