Tattoo,
I notice the spot of lead. What do you use to weight your lures and how do you glue the weights in?

Will you repair it or heat the shop with it? I must say either way it lived a successful life

I drill a hole and pour the lead in. I try not to fill the hole. I fill it in with epoxy and sand it smooth. For some reason...it didnt last...


This one will be retired...

And here I am thinking shot and epoxy. I guess my instinct of just dumping hot lead in was right.

Oh...shot and epoxy work too, you just need a bigger hole to get the same weight...
