I remember Karl F talking about cork/lead mixture to make heavy lures that float . I was going to experiment with lead and that expanding foam they sell in airesol cans . "Great Stuff" .. was planning on messing with it this winter..

Try the Hilti (sp?) foam that comes in the red can, you can re-use it vs great stuff being a one shot deal.
