ColdSVT Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Sometimes it is worth the cost but I do not use it all the time. Heavier punching weights and times where I want a smaller profile in clear water. I like the guys that think Tungsten is good for the environment? You may want to re-check the facts on it. Allen Tell that to the state..wait no...dont you dare!W is much less toxic than lead,but toxic none the less...just like everything else lol Quote

pbizzle Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 This is true. But a puzzle image is clearer w/all the pieces. How much is this last piece worth?Certainly not $5 a pack! Lol. Quote
louviere83 Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Just picked these up at www.kajunboss.com. 5.92 each for 1 1/2oz tungsten wasn't too bad. Better than the 10-11 bucks I've been paying. Quote

Super User FishTank Posted January 16, 2015 Super User Posted January 16, 2015 I heard here locally Dicks sporting Goods is clearancing out all Tungsten. I will clean them out. Quote

Super User tomustang Posted January 16, 2015 Super User Posted January 16, 2015 I heard here locally Dicks sporting Goods is clearancing out all Tungsten. I will clean them out. They did that 3 months ago in my area, nice half price too. Quote
Super User FishTank Posted January 16, 2015 Super User Posted January 16, 2015 They did that 3 months ago in my area, nice half price too. they only had a few left but I picked up a couple of packs for $3 each and a spool of Trilene xl 6lb 100% FC for $10. Quote
flipin4bass Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 You've got a little more than 4 months until the Memorial Day sales...put tungsten on your list and be done with it. Quote
Super User S Hovanec Posted January 16, 2015 Super User Posted January 16, 2015 Not worth it to me. The way I lose DS weights, I'd spend more money on weights in a day than I do on gas for the boat. Quote
Super User *Hootie Posted January 16, 2015 Super User Posted January 16, 2015 DSG never works for me. Stopped at my local store back in the fall to pick up some tube baits. They had one pack. Not one pack of the ones I wanted. One pack period, in the whole dang store. I probably have more of a tackle selection than they do. Hootie 2 Quote

I usually tend to stay away for the most part. 1 Quote
Arv Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 One more vote for size. If it's under 3/16 I go lead as those small weights are also a small size despite being lead. Even then, I'm not positive that I have a higher number of caught fish because of smaller sized weights. I'll still throw lead weights 1/4 to 1/2oz and catch fish. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted January 18, 2015 Global Moderator Posted January 18, 2015 The only reason I buy tungsten is for flipping weeds, only time it's worth it to me. Quote
