CDone Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 Whats the size on the stuff from the golf shops? I use a lot for nymphs and would love to see a consistent supply. And as Max mentioned both Wholesale and Fishtales is where I've gotten mine, think I saw some at Russels a while back as well. Colin Quote
SilverDoctor Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Just bought out all the fishing hole has. Sorry guys. Golf shops stock it too. Quote

Colin Colin I have bought it from Nevada Bob's right next to the Fish'n Hole. It's exactally the same thickness and price (Roughly $4.50 a pack) as the stuff sold at The Fish'n Hole. If you need some I'll be happy to give you some. I bought a few packs last time I was there. Just as a side note. I cut mine into 1/6" to 1/8" strips. So it goes a long ways. I've been using it for tying Czech Nymphs. But it is good for weighting any nymphs. Rob Quote

Rob I've got a fair amount here Rob, I've just been going through it pretty fast so will probably need to pick some up in the next couple of months. Thanks Colin Quote
