cast net lead weights


Recommended Posts

Hi guys n gals. I'm in need of some extra weight on one of my cast nets. I need about an extra kg of the lead that crimps onto the rope at the bottom of the net. Happy to buy them but havn't seen them in the shops. Or if someone has a lead mold i could borrow that would be even better. Any help appreciated

Thanks Steve

Hi Steve. Hey this is my first bit of communication on this site. I hope this gets to you. I have an old cast net which still has the lead weights on it. You can give me a call on 0405229601 and we may be able to work something out to fix your problem. Iam on the north side of Brisbane. Look forward to talking to you. Graham

Failing anything else mentioned.

Buy some no 3 bean sinkers, place them in a vice, cut with hacksaw until you reach the hole in the middle, spread with screwdriver, place rope through opened up cut, hammer it closed again. Here is what it will look like in the end. I use this on one of my mackeral rigs. Works a treat to get some weight on the pillie while trolling it. IMG_0808.jpg
