    You might want to check with your local bait shop. A lot of people make there own jig heads for fishing. I have sold lead for more than scrap price, more than once...

    According to Scrap Monster lead is around $.40 lb 2 weeks ago. Might try selling it to a scrapyard.

    Some states have made lead illegal for fishing items.
