I was in my tackle shop the other day and couldnt help noticing how the choice of leads as grown enormously over the last few years, shape, size, colour, texture etx etx.
Personally I, ve always painted my leads to suit whatever resembles the river or lake bed.
I also have a partnership with an old angling friend whereby I have provided both ladles, lead and a few favours and in return he makes the weights from moulds he purchesd some years ago.
The shop leads seem to me to be outrageously priced these days which makes our investment really worthwhile, having lost three leads yesterday it wasnt to hard a loss but buying from a dealer it could have been a little short of a fiver.
Any thoughts from members on some of the above,
