Maybe try somewhere that stocks sea tackle, they should have plenty of 'in-line' ball leads, you can coat them yourself if you like. Not sure about swivel ones, although you could bodge a few together with some swivel's and lengths of lead core threaded through I should think. I wouldn't cast them into thick silt mind, they'll be a bugger to get out..

Have a look at west country leads, reverse distance leads. Not exactly what you want, but might do the same job.

That's a blast from the past. Remember using these in the early 90s. Used to cast like a bag of spanners. Probably why they didn't stick around to long.. have you tried the likes of Ebay? Good luck.
