i dont get down to sc ports much how much it cost you? any contacts you used or someone i can talk to about it? You don't have no boat yards in Myrtle beach area. I used to get lead from Detyens ship yard. Many years ago. They use them to balance the ships in water. You can also ck your local tire shops. Lead weights.

lol myrtle beach is an hr from me.. and i dont know of anything in myrtle beach (absolutely no industry) and in georgetown their is not really much either i deliver to the boat yards around hear so ill check them this week.

i can buy weights but id rather make them as it would be cheaper in the lnog run not the inital setup.

ive been pricing the wire line,crimps,swivel bearings ect ect.. and i can build a rig for less than the 5/6$ they are charging now without the hook.

good place to get the leaders,crimps,swivels,thimbles ect ect.

25lb bag of lead shot from a gun shop if you are planning to melt it down and form your own. It's expensive though- $41-$45 for a 25lb bag.

Run by a tire shop and see if they will let you get the bucket of used tire weights. Most places already have a person that gets them on a regular basis. Ya might get lucky and be able to snag a bucket.

i use to live in myrtle beach so all my friends live their..

i have no friends where i live.. i have nothing in common with the locals or understand their mentality(for the most part) its a very very black area where i live(wedgefield plantation) is concidered the rich stuck up snobs of the area and if you tell someone you live their u get looked at funny or ignored.

[White00gt]
