Gambler doesn't make Florida weights anymore?

I heard yesterday that there was some kind of lawsuit and Gambler doesn't
have them anymore, and the guy at Sportsman's Warehouse told me the only
place you can buy them now is bass pro. Wah!




The weights that WERE gambler weights are now marketed by only by BPS.

Gambler has a different system that is a bit of a PIA, but does work very
well.

Personally, I still prefer to toothpick my sinker to the line when I want
to peg it.


For small weights and small baits I prefer a Peg-It, but basically I would
agree. For larger baits and larger weights I liked the screw in weight
because the bait and weight would often slide up the line away from the fish
leaving him little fight against except the line and the hook. JMHO.

I could not find the screw in weights ont he bulelt weights website. I will
check Tackle Warehouse for the sizes I want. I noticed BPS did have a very
limited selection in plain and black.

Thanks everybody.
