      <title>Jighead Question</title>
      <link>http://www.kevinvandam.com/forums/viewthread/8385/</link>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;I just purchased the gamakatsu double ring collar jighead mold&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kevinvandam.com/?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.barlowstackle.com%2FDo&#45;It&#45;Round&#45;Head&#45;Mold&#45;P196.aspx&quot;&gt;http://www.barlowstackle.com/Do&#45;It&#45;Round&#45;Head&#45;Mold&#45;P196.aspx&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
^^^ Thats it&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
My quesiton is, it takes a gami 604 hook (which is fine, but its crazy expensive)&lt;br /&gt;
or it takes mustad 32756 amberdine ( which is wayyyyyy too thin, I believe its a .034) I know the gami is .048&#8230;I need to find a cheaper alternative that&#8217;s super sharp, same gauge wire and such. I pour mainly with mustad ultra points which are fine, but these amberdine wires are a no no. I hope some of you guys can point me in the right direction. I need to pour a ton of these and I dont want to break the bank or use garbage gauge hooks&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;I used to get my lead at a local gunshop so I can pour my jigs, I never abused it and purchased alot, maybe some here and there, and the price wasn&#8217;t too bad. but I called today to see if I can stop by and pick more up. They said they no longer &#8220;sell&#8221; it. They never sold it before, but when I would ask they would be more than willing to give me 1 or 2 ingots of it. Now they are stating that I need to buy a 25 pound of lead shot for 50 bucks, that&#8217;s my only option. I don&#8217;t understand why becasue when I go there they have pallets and pallets of lead. Not sure what to do or where I can possible go to get my lead? any ideas please!!!!!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Just killing some time today using up some left overs from AndyO&#8217;s pour. I think it might work on smallies. &lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Can I use the lead @ my local car dealership that they use to balance tires with??? I mean they have a giant bucket of them and they toss them out when it gets full, instead of spending money on lead can I just use the scraps that I can get for free? Should I clean the lead off or when I melt it down all the crap should come to the top so I can scoop out???&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>1st Week of Pouring</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Here are some pics of baits that I poured last night. The top pic is of the beaver. The bottom pic is of a senko that has no salt. I made it with no salt because the action it has with no salt is phenomenal. I plan on fishing it on a light shakey head. They are both different versions of watermelon red flake&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://s721.photobucket.com/albums/ww219/LilJakeC/?action=view&amp;amp;current=beaver.jpg&quot;&gt;http://s721.photobucket.com/albums/ww219/LilJakeC/?action=view&amp;amp;current=beaver.jpg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://s721.photobucket.com/albums/ww219/LilJakeC/?action=view&amp;amp;current=beaver.jpg#oZZ2QQcurrentZZhttp://s721.photobucket.com/albums/ww219/LilJakeC/?action=view&amp;amp;current=senko.jpg&quot;&gt;http://s721.photobucket.com/albums/ww219/LilJakeC/?action=view&amp;amp;current=beaver.jpg#oZZ2QQcurrentZZhttp://s721.photobucket.com/albums/ww219/LilJakeC/?action=view&amp;amp;current=senko.jpg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
There will be more pics to come in the next few days when I am at my moms and am able to get some pics of the baits I made last weekend&lt;/p&gt;</description>
