Can I use a lead fishing weight to hold the clip down in the water and use
attach a fishing line to the clip to remove the clip? Will the lead weight cause and damage to my eco system? |

So what would make a good weight for the clip?

You could also make yourself a portland cement weight.
I've made all kinds of weights out of portland cement. Wayne Sallee Wayne's Pets Wayne Sallee wrote on 7/31/2006 5:38 PM: A small rock.

No, but you should be able to find weights coated with epoxy that will be safe. George Patterson Coffee is only a way of stealing time that should by rights belong to your slightly older self. |

But if the epoxy does not perfectly seal the lead, it's a
high risk that you may not realize it.
