There is a new proposal in the federal government that would ban all lead in fishing tackle. This would include sinkers, jigs, and other components that contain lead. If you go to the bass website ( http://sports.espn.go.com/outdoors/bassmaster/index ) there is details about the proposed plan. They are urging individuals to take action and there is an easy way on the bass website to contact your legislators. They are going to look at this legislation sometime around Sept 15th. It is important to take action before this time!
