2 Hours Before the Storm

[baywalker]

Since I couldn't go fishing today, about 2 hours before the rains came, I tried mding on one of my bay beaches. I found lots of lead, $1.17 in clad, a couple of aluminum wedge things that I have seen before but do not know what they are, and a bracelet which I thought was gold but just brass, and a small charm. How can China make lead sinkers and ship them here cheaper than we can make them Thanks for looking.

Jonnie, I was thinking this morning that there is no way you were fishing today. It rained all day here. Nice pile of stuff, too bad nothing real good. I saw your other post with the bone or stone round thing. It might be a gorget, or something for making fire that wore through. Steve.

Unfortunately China is making everything cheaper then we can make it (not better) that's why all the jobs are over there.

Keep swinging the good finds will come. Rick

Three letters say's it all EPA, them and the green freaks have just about shut down all the smelters in this country.

That and the fact that China brakes into a market by selling for or less than the parts cost, then after it drives under our businesses then they raise the price up but it's still the same cheap junk.

I do my darnedest not to by anything with "Made in China" on it but some time's it can't be avoided.

Aman wildman.... me too. Ive almost stopped shopping at Wally World because of it. Japan did the same thing before WWII.... they owned us. Also they send us lead idems for our kids, bad grain, bad dry wall, and copy anything without regard to patten. Its a you bought it but you cant use it tactic.

Those aluminum parts looks like cut pieces of thresh holds. Im sure that wasnt nearly the payday you get during a sunny fishing day.... but instead of that sticker that says GONE FISHING you need one that says gone METAL DETECTING.
