I dont understand why your wanting/needing a filter for your melt?
https://www.howlforwildlife.org/take_action  It takes 10 seconds and it’s free. To easy to make an excuse not to make your voice heard!!!!!!

Good lord, if this is what you are paying for a half dozen decoy weights, I will sell you a brand new dozen for 40 bucks everyday for a year.

Cabelas has a dozen 4 oz in a kit for 23 bucks right now.
I just bought some 7.5 oz for 29 bucks. 
I have over 5 dozen of them and have never paid 40 bucks.
