Need 2" long tail weights

[Striperhound]

I took a look on NJ and Cape Cod websites and could not find what I was looking for. Anyone have a source for 0.25" outside diameter x 2 inch long tail weights. I have had some old gibbs stuff apart and they had these in the tail weight? Any suggestions?

Thanks

Can you find 1" ones ? If so just use two of em, they'll weigh the same.

Hound, my large needles use that style weight. what i do is take a small .25 NJ tackle weight and drill out the center and remove about half the lead. then i do it agian to another and wire them both butt to butt. then i epoxy the wire in place so it doesnt rattle around.

Cape cod tackle has them. Just added to the line up. Give Mike a call he's shipping Tuesday I beleive.

mine are 3/8 dia not 1/4.
They are also 1.75 & 2.5 long
My smallest tail weight right now is 1/4" dia X 1 long " you could just use 2 of them

Thanks Mike, any shot at adding a 1.75" to 2" .25 diameter tail weight to the line up. These really do a nice job at balancing out a long needle

I'll see what I can do.
