Thanks for the video! Brings back memories of watching my uncle and his friend gather lead that fell off of tires on the road, and then melt them to make sinkers for striper and salmon fishing in the San Francisco Bay.
Hey Buddy........haven't seen you in a while and had to find you again. Have been following you for a few years but stopped getting notifications from you. Just hit the bell again so hope that takes care of that. Pouring lead is great. I've been doing it for 35 years for fishing and shooting. I bought out a small sports shop back in the mid 80's and it included all the fishing hooks and a ton of lead and all kinds of accessories for making lures, jigs, etc. Great fun. Just have it set-up in my basement. Nice video.
Those snaggers are worthwhile on a kayak as opposed to bringing a cast net to save on weight for a trip. I have a few of those made from the weights cut off of discarded cast nets just slipped onto large treble hooks. Good content.
Hi Steve. You probably have better sources for low hooks prices than I do But I’ve used Captain Hooks Warehouse on the web for a lot of years. Thanks for the vids Yellow Paddle Roger
Just to point you don’t need to smoke those molds ...is simply a myth. If they are hot enough nothing gets stick. You only make them look ugly and dirty. Regards. Fred.

What I also learned is that aluminum under the hotpot or to have on your table is very nice for safety as well as an aluminum can for the slag.
This was oddly satisfying!!
Steve you make everything look so easy!
Excellent explanation ! , step by step , thanks a lot
good video Steve keep up the good work!

Thanks for the demo . I was hoping you were heating up your molds .
Lead is such a cool metal
More of a tungsten guy myself but lead is okay. Osmium is as metal AF.
Tastes great too!
Thanks for the video!
Even if you have a fan you should really get a respirator for when your smoking your lead for inpuritees just a tip
Great Vídeo !!!
Great info 👍🏾
Its like watching the T1000 melt away .....😱
Thanks
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Very cool
What mold model are you using for the snag treble hook
Great video. Where can I get the lead?
How do you make lead to be smooth when the lead comes out mine has wrinkles
Great vid where can I purchase Mustad 3551-DT Size 8/0 Duratin Saltwater Treble Hooks to go with my mold, Thanks
How do you make your level in base
Where do you buy lead in bulk?
You may consider answering all the questions people have asked you. I’m not going to bother to ask one at this point. I never flux, by the way.
First
Wear a respirator! Those fumes can/will cause health problems
The synthetic shirt you are wearing will melt to your skin if lead splatters on it. Cotton would be a better choice.
oh god did he say "more porn videos" to come later....
LOL, more *pouring* videos, dude!
Though admittedly, he does do a lot of fishing and food porn... :D
Bad camera angel
The angle is bad too.
Just to point you don’t need to smoke those molds ...is simply a myth.
