How to make Lead fishing weights (Egg style and Bank style)

In this video i show you how to make your own lead fishing weights using molds and melting pots. If you have some old lead that's just been sitting around the backyard and you fish a lot you could benefit from making your own weights vs buying them from a store. Its super simple and with just a small initial investment for a melting pot and a mold or two you could save a lot of money over the long haul. Make sure to where the proper PPE and be safe if you do attempt! Hope y'all enjoy, see you out on the water next time

I used these with the Team Catfish weight slides to make a kzbin.infoUgkxdmsDj7fQXe77DC0l7P7ua8B3PiESUubM Carolina rig and they were perfect for the ponds I fish. I have also used them to make 3 way rigs and these work perfectly. Haven't had any issues with them snagging in rocks or in weeds yet.

Where did you purchase your egg weight moles from and you're heating pots?

[@CaptCollier]

They were given to me but I’m sure you can get everything you need on Amazon or somewhere online
