Nail weights

Any idea what those screws might weigh?

I'd be guessing between 1/16 to 1/8 oz. They twist in by hand real nice.

Mike somebody thinks they are getting screwed don't you know By the way nice looking spinner bait you making.

I think I screwed up sharing my money saving tip... Get 400 pieces for $5 and share them with all my buddies.... Give them away for free... I guess I'm wasting money.

I paid $2, you paid $4, we both start our 250's which cost $2 just to start. I'm out $4 and your out $6. There's the logic..lol


So our $2 saved fired up the 250, thats worth it in itself..

Awesome!!!

I have found nothing better for the Neko rig... Home Depot cheap and looks good on the end of the bait. Helps stand up Don't fall out or stiffen the action like a nail weight. These are less than 1/2 inch... http://www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-...Framing+Screws

Thanks for the tip. I have to go back to HD for some returns anyway so I'll just pick some up to try them. I like that the head will stick out to clack on some rocks.

Thank you.

Have you tried installing them with into your plastics with an impact drill? Do you prefer 12 volt or 18 volt?

The last nails weights I bought were the tungsten BPS brand. I like tungsten because I can get a heavier weight with a smaller profile nail.

I prefer a pneumatic 1/2" impact. Really seats it down well

I found that using an impact driver can cause stripping.

Drywall nails

Yep a little tape and drywall mud, plug the old holes and reuse the bait forever!

Love the "cheaper" comments... $60,000 boats, $300 rods, $300 reels, $20 baits.... screws and nails from the hardware store for weights!! Haha..

Gotta save where you can.

Same here, thats why I use a torque wrench and make sure they are tightened to spec on the box.
