How much do they run? Not that I will need any soon, but just for knowing's sake
I get a lot from Clays Bait Shop in Tupelo.....he has a local that pours them for him. He has all types.
Get some #7 swivels and some lead. I'll bring my molds and pot to spring camp.
First y'all was on the shine and now y'all got some pot? Sounds like my kind of party!Quote:

Mo, if you bought a few more of those sinkers you will have bought a mold. And I bet you know someone who has a melter for pouring weights, bullets or something. If you sold some just to guys on here at a cheap price over a period of time you would pay for most of your outlay.
My grandfather had all the stuff, he tied hair jigs before he passed. I think I have something that looks like a soup ladel, he melted his on a propane burner, I probably just need a mold then. I may look into getting a larger mold, around 2-4oz for when I push cranks... Those jokers are spensive(4oz)
Now we talkingQuote:

I buy 5# of several sizes at same time. If you do it that way, you get them for about $16 for five pounds...spreading the $8.95 shipping cost over three bags. But pouring your own is cheaper than Grizzly's price.Quote:
