Nickel Plated Tail Grommets

I'm new to plug building and have come a long way. I need to find some nickel plated tail grommets. I've been buying from NJTackle but he only has brass tail grommets. Any help would be appreciated. Trav

The snaps on the right might work but they don't tell you the diameter of the whole. Maybe someone on the sight might have tried them. We'll have to see.

Spence, If you run into a jam let me know, You can get them at N.J. TACKLE......

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....

Moore's has aluminum tail grommets in their catalog. Not sure of the sizes off the top of my head.
