Default lead tape


I have been trying to get away from using lead.
But I haven't succeeded 100%
I (still) make lead jig heads with wire and super glue.
I use jig hooks I get from Minnesota, and then wrap
the front of the hook with lead wire until the wire
lump has the shape of a round or semi-round jig head.
Then I soak it with super glue and there it is.
