Our Patience has Paid Off

You spoke and we listened. Now Tung Tied Tungsten Worm Weights come with a polymer inner coating instead of nylon sleeves. We heard from many of you that you wanted to peg your tungsten worm weights. That's hard to do with a sleeve. Of course nobody wants a tungsten weight to abuse their line. The fix; a polymer molecular coating on the inner shaft hole. This allows the weight to slip up and down the line for those that like to free weight their rigs, and room to fit a peg for those who like to peg their weights. The other part of the fix was to bevel the outer walls of the holes.

We also heard that our brown was too dark, and almost hard to define from the black. We've changed that up, and made it more milk chocolate in color. Blends well with pumpkin baits.

The other thing was the size selection. You can now get Tung Tied Tungsten weights in 1/8, 3/16, 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 ounce sizes. Also, we do still have some of the original in 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 and 1 ounce sizes.

Thanx Roger. Just like me; a work in progress.

I sure had a good time doing that for those guys. It really hits hard on my heart to know what those guys give for us to keep doing what we do.

I hope you and Mona have a great time in your new digs. I miss seeing you guys out there on tour.

Don't forget to come chat with Jay tomorrow, too willya.

Peace,
James

great news! That's going to save me a LOT of time when I'm on the water. I like to peg my weights.

Not yet, sorry.

I'm working on getting a new order of 3/4 and 1 ounce. But, the Chinese take a month off for new year from January 10th through February 5th. So, it will be awhile.

I know you northern guys like to peg 1 ounces to punch with. They will be added, but I've gotta get some of these other sizes sold first. The 1 ounces with sleeves are great for Carolina rigging, but not so much for pegging. Hopefully, I'll have them in stock before the grass gets too thick up there.

Thanks for your support.
