Led is expensive, so the weights are expensive. Buy me the molds and ill pour em for ya!

Anyone remember when you could get pencil led rolls for $.99 those were the days!

I sell all kinds of weights.  cannon balls 1oz-10oz, banana weights 1oz- 5oz. , pyramid plunking  sinkers 2oz- 8oz.  I can ship them also.

1. cut in half
2. Do you drill hole in the half RR spike?

How do you setup the rigging of the RR spike

I think I will go for a walk tomorrow on the railroad

No kidding! Its criminal trespass now.And they do prosecute.They will probably prosecute for theft as well.The railroads dont take kindly to this anymore. The whole Homeland Security thing really kicked it off.

I already thought about that.  So I am off to an area that is pretty good for not seeing people on the tracks.

lumber company tracks, no hole just tie them on, I do it just like a drift tie up hang the weight from a three way or drop line of light weight so it can break off.. purty simple. I used to use them a lot for plunking and sturgeon on the Cowlitz and Columbia.
