Good point snowman
I can get most colours and only do a textured finish on them 90% of the leads can have swivels and loops in them, the other version where the swivel is moulded into the lead leaving the top of the swivel exposed allowin it still to spin
All the backleads weigh around 1oz
These are the ones i have at the mo
But also do one with a brass loop
I am also workin on a backlead that will have a plastic ring instead of a brass loop or snaplink

Finally got the new backlead sorted out The lead weighs around 1oz The plastic ring is around 12mm in size and goes into the middle of the the lead The ring is very springy which will keep the lead on the line when reelin in unlike the other makes that fall off 
I've been playin around with the rings for last month or so.
I have found that if the lead was to become snagged up for some reason the plastic ring will pull out of the lead allowin the mainline to come free

Well here's the first couple of backleads coated and ready to go 
There's a plastic ring fitted to the top to hold it on the line which is split to allow it to go into the top of the lead , but if the backlead was to become snagged it will break free from the ring but wont drop the lead when you reel in for a recast

They look good Kev!...
Could they be cut to the centre so they are a quick change and more important quick release in case of a snag so they drop off!..
