: Sputnik sinkers for sale?
: Jaws January 21, 2018, 08:00:51 PM

All,
Looking to test the waters on possibly selling Sputniks (locally only for now)
I recently purchased molds for 4,5,6, and 7 ounce sputniks and have been producing a few and refining the process, I have also been experimenting with an integrated "splash down clip", as well as an option for a short and long tailed version and a light and heavier gauge of stainless wire legs and tails. I have a couple of guinea pigs already to test out the splash down design, so after feedback I will decide whether to implement this feature on a regular or special order basis. i also have molds to produce 2,3,4,5 ounce egg sinkers. Just trying to see if there is a market, and if so may scale up to meet wider needs.
Prices will be:
$2.50 ea for 4 & 5 ounce
$3.00 ea for 6 7 7 ounce
.25 cents extra for splashdown clip if implemented
Let me know what you all think?

I've got a bunch of 6-8oz sputniks, but I'm going to see how 4oz casts with the new rod. If it works, then I'll be hitting you up. And I like the integrated bait clip down a lot ;D
