Bullet Weight Stoppers - What Works?

Paychex Punch stops are the most durable especially on braid with heavier weights.  TW has them.

I have used toothpicks, rubber pegs, bobber stops and the pegs Tru-Tungsten use to sell for their weights. The cheap red and black 8-12lb bobber stops work great for me for most of my fishing. Like someone mentioned these things are really inexpensive compared to everything else. For the heavier 1oz+ punch weights the regular bobber stops do not work as well so I recommend the heavier ones made for punching.

I use bobber stops from eagle claw though I may change because sometimes I have to use two to make sure the weight doesn't move. I really miss the tru-tungsten stops that were custom fit to their weights. Those things were solid

Grant, if you look hard enough you can still get them...one suggestion is go to some local tackle shops, I have found them there as well as the weights. Keep in mind Picasso still make the weights.

I like these http://www.ecoprotungsten.com/eco-pro-pegs/

They are a little bit more expensive, but they get the job done, and as few as you go through, it really doesn't matter that they're a little more.

Looks like the old Tru Tungsten Smart Pegs are back on the market.

TW has always had the Smart Peg,i just got an order from them along with one other too try.

Lol I always keep an eye out. I made my original 4 packs last almost two years. Though this thread is offering some good suggestions I will have to try at one time or another
