OK...I've learned how to make my own jig & lure molds by using floor leveling compound. Now I have another question.
I want to make larger jigs (Cod jigs). Would large jigs made from regular lead hold up well, or would they bend and whatnot very easily?
I know I've heard about different types of lead (hard, soft, etc), but I don't know the difference. Is there a certain type of lead that I should use, and if so, where can I find it?
Also, I've heard something about using different types of metal (I think bismuth was one of them). Is using a different type of metal another option? And again, if so, where can I find it?
Thanks for any info,
Steve
