Where to buy lead sinkers?

Anyone have a good, low priced source? I need about 100 pounds in 4 sizes. 5, 6, 8, & 16.

Not for real lead, everytime I go to get sinkers there it is that fake lead stuff that costs and arm and a leg... maybe they have some in your wal-mart though....

Try Terminaltackleco.com if Mike at MD's doesnt have what you need...

Part of the problem is that it has to be close enough to pick up, the cost of shipping lead makes it uneconomic to buy it from anyone too far away.

If you're close to 95, you could make it to M&Ds in Wareham in about an hour and a half unless you hit Providence during the teeth of rush hour.
