Does anyone know of a lead similar to the design of these available in the UK? They're fished as a running setup with a bead, then a swivel after the bead.

Wish I'd stocked up on them, but tackle so bloody expensive in Europe

It's a cog (centre of gravity) lead...

The line doesn't go through a cog lead Dave.

The principle of the centre weighted pick up point is still the cog idea.
The early versions were like in the picture, the later versions had the line outside so it could be fished drop off stylee.

Try searching for "Mahin Leads", the french Mahin brothers came up with the idea originally, way back. Starbaits do them but I dont know if they are distributed in the UK, not sure what the UK postage fees are like for "pecheur.com".

No idea what this site is like... :

Otherwise Fox do an inline lead on a similar principal.
