    Do-it Mold company makes every sinker/jig mold a person can think of.

    Call your closest fishing shop and they will be able to order one for you. I don’t think we can order directly from the manufacturer.

    Mine were made for me.

    You can’t buy what I have there. I know the right people and there was a lot of milling done for me.

    I second catfish connection. While I don’t buy weights from them, as I pour my own.. I do buy some crappie stuff from them. They have crappie tubes for $1.55/100 on closeout.

    Kevin do you have their e-mail address? I tried clicking on their contact us link but I wouldn’t show up for me. I contact them to ask about hook sizes on some jig heads.

    If the dropshot weights are what you are after, you can get them on ebay for $20/100, with free shipping and no tax.

    I’m all for supporting a site sponsor though, so if the price difference doesn’t matter then FF is the way to go.

    Where do you get your lead for the weights?

    I am getting into jig making and can’t find it

    Hard to find right now. No scrap yards or mechanics will sell it, they all have buyers lined up. Online prices are crazy high (about 2.60/lb)

    Cheapest place I’ve found is lead-bandit. They sell ingots for $1.75/lb and flat $5 shipping.
