Maybe a couple of feet? I\'m plating around with tail lengths and stuff.
Do tackle shops sell it unformed? I mean just a straight length of it, no eyes etc.?

Sorry to mess you all about but i am talking about the wire used in the EYE of the lead (thanks allan), not the actual \'grippers\' or tails as I now know them to be known. Does anyone know where i can get this stuff?

hello student, frasers sell them but only in aprox 4-5 inch length you can leave both eyes on to make use of the full length of the wire.

Cheers John but i want the lengths of wire to be longer than normal and without the eye. If i could find somewhere to get lengths, that would be great."My Biggest worry is that when I'm dead and gone, my wife will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it." - Koos BrandtComment

About seven inches would be great i think ( I sound like my lass
).
That should give me room to play about and experiment."My Biggest worry is that when I'm dead and gone, my wife will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it." - Koos BrandtComment
