Sloppy Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 Hello tackle makers. Im new to tackle making(about 2 months) and have been making balsa squarebills only. Has anyone used tungsten electrodes for additional weight under the bill of their balsa baits? I use the belly weights with the hook hangers but want a more nose down profile in the water. Thanks and great forum. Sloppy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 I sometimes use tungsten shot for added weight since it doesn’t need much room to install. But I don’t see any reason to use it over lead when there’s room. It’s all ballast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloppy Posted August 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) Thank you. It is just ballast. I just have a large quantity on tungsten electrodes. Edited August 30, 2018 by Sloppy More detail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
