Lead may soon be banned for use as fishing weights and most major manufacturers have already started using other metals that are more ecologically friendly.
Lead is the best fishing weight for it's density, malleability and cost. Using used lead is not the best idea however as it often contains asbestos. Not exactly what you want to be messing around with.

You might be able to save yourself some money, not that you would save much, but here are a few options.Go to demolition sites of really old buildings, they used to use lead pipes for funaces and such. Another place is where they have old tires attached to rims, the balances on the wheels are lead. You might be able to get a bunch of old ones to use.

Call around to recycle centers. That is the cheapest way to get it in bulk. I also melt down lead for sinkers and I just occassionaly go to empty parking lots and drive around at about 20 mph and find lots of tire weights that must have fallen off at some time. I always have 5 - 10 lbs of the stuff at any one time.go to a tire center and ask if they are throwing away their used balance weights they are made of lead and once they take them off the tires they toss them..

Have you any idea of the pain and suffering fisherman's lead causes to the swans and other bird and animals who ingest this stuff. There must be an alternative, why not try to find that instead.More Questions & Answers...
