I've been running 12lb balls and getting some major blow back (as I like to troll a little hot). I priced them in Madison and they were $62 a piece! Are they really that much now?
Or Salty, what are your prices? PM me so the tread doesn't get pulled.

One little mistake, and Gilligan just had a little flat.

Salty......
Have you ever had the notion to dip and coat your rigger weights with red rubber??
You wont have a blow back problem with his self-made weights ---- excellent quality and well engineered!

Clam .. I've heard that the rubber coating can ADD to the blow back problem

I read on another site that rubber coated balls after a while will give off a foul oder due to water getting traped behind the rubber and canging temps in the sun when not being used.
Makes sence to me.

I always thought it would be a bad idea to leave your balls out in the sun too long!  |

i've decided for the upcoming holiday to give away 10 --- yes 10, 12 1/2lb "Salty's Balls" downrigger weights to the first 10 people that send me a pm-- all you pay is $45 shipping and handling (local pick up only) and if you act now i will personally include (at no charge to you) a 4-6 hr class aboard your boat "salty's balls" and how to run them
