18 ounce singers currently cost you between $4 and $5 buck each if purchased while on a boat. Half that if you buy from Sam. Purchasing an 18 oz bank mold from Mac's in Belmar will cost you about $34 after tax. Clearly, at these econoics it doesnt take long to recoup your investment.
On the other hand, if you're only fishing the back bays sporadically and using largely 2 and 3 ouncers you may be better off just buying the sinkers.

I think I might just have to go Sam all I hear is good stuff about him.
