QUESTION: Finding Tungsten beads at a decent price, 16 Jul 2005, USA

I am an avid fly fisherman and fly tier and I am using lead but trying to switch to Tungsten and I am having a hard time finding Tungsten beads at a decent price. Would anyone know of a place to get cheaper beads and bypass fly shops where a person could purchase them from a manufacturer and buy them in bulk. I appreciate your time.

Dear Charles,

please see the Lead Fishing Sinkers and Jigs in Canada: Review of their Use Patterns and Toxic Impacts on Wildlife Includes list of manufacturers of nonlead fishing sinkers

See links below for where to purchase tungsten beads

Regards and happy lead-free fishing!
Yours Sincerely
