Tackle Supplies

[GarryP]

I am very close to running out of split shot and would like to get a new set of various sizes SSG, AAA, BB, #6 etc. My current supply was brought over from the UK a few years ago. Unfortunately, I have not seen split shot sold in the local tackle shops in BKK. Has anyone come across shot here? I don't want to have to start using the Thai version which is a length of lead that you cut to size and wrap around the line. Very difficult when you want to spread the weight out on the leader. Any suggestions appreciated.

Shouldn't have a problem. I bought the usual UK style six divider shot dispenser for 50 bt from my local shop in Banchang.They don't grip as well as UK shot but at that price I bought them all. I just took my old divider and asked them if they had the same.

I can't believe how much they charge for the same in the UK and since they eradicated lead I don't feel they grip as well.

Never seen microshot though but the eyes aren't good enough for them anyway.
