That's a lot of lead. How deep do you think you'll get to? I'm sure you can find some thornyheads, if you dare...

I went inexpensive and planned on installing a new helm that I bought a few months ago and is desperately needed.  Since I busted my shoulder, that won't work so I brought the boat into the shop. 

Well, the helm won't fit unless I pay to have a new mount custom made... so I had to buy one that would fit.  Thankfully, I bought the other helm so long ago, that I can't return it.  Oh joys!

Lure & Rig Crafting Board / Poured 6 Sinkers....
Last post by Latimeria - November 13, 2024, 06:13:02 PM
Thing is these 6 sinkers weigh 20 pounds!  Holy smokes that was a lot of lead.

I lost my 3# sinker the last time I was out deep dropping and needed to pour some deep drop sinkers.  I want to do some exploring with the electric reel before the season closes.  That and maybe try dropping a conventional reel if I could find the big blackgill.



In any case, the little mold is a 32 oz sinker...

The big one is a 6 pounder!



I swore my pot held 10 pounds, but it's only a 5# pot at best.  Took some time to pour and needed my torch to keep things warm.

They aren't pretty, but dont have to be.  I still need to clean them up, but that's a lot of sinker!

I used to airbrush jean jackets back in the 80's for really good money.  I saw what the going rate is these days and decided to paint a test one.

It still has a bit to go, but I'll be adding studs, pins, chains... the whole 9 yards.

Let's see who knows the band and album (still have to paint that on when the picture is done.
