Thanks a lot! Since they all have the front BB's still, I'm gonna leave the backs empty and seal them up as is. I figure I'll keep them for clear water since I read in a few other forums that the rattlers in the back tend to spook the fish in clear water conditions.

I recently won a bunch of old Cordell Spots on EBay and when I got them I realized that I inherited an abandoned mod project. The guy drilled holes, dumped the BB's out, never patched the holes and stopped there. I wanted to put some BB's back in and seal the hole, but I'm not sure how many BB's normally go into these things. I have 2 1/2 and 3 inch Spots and thought that I could add enough BB's til the 2 1/2 inchers come up to 1/4 oz and the 3 inchers come up to a half oz, but that is a lot of BB's and I'm also not sure if I would have the hooks on them when I weigh them. I realize I should just buy new ones, but now I feel married to the idea of getting these things up and running again. Any help would be appreciated
