Re: Need to buy lead
Have you tried Sims Metal? Might be worth a call.
Tyre shops might sell you old wheel balance weights.

Might be worth hitting up a few of the roofing companies that were re roofing all the tile roof commission houses.
They should have pulled a fair bit of them.

Re: Need to buy lead
Used to get a 20ltr bucket of the old wheel weights for a carton of beer from the tyre shops 30 years ago.
Then every one woke up and every tyre shop round Darwin has more than one fisho working there….
If you're not looking for running sinkers try 3/8 chain link. 3,4 or 5 more links depending how deep you’re fishing. Loop em on the bottom just the same with a nice jingle on the jig to attract attention.
