Fishing Line for Making Jewelry

I am a jewelry "remaker". I buy old and create one of a kind "new" stuff.

During a recent trip to Wallyworld for paper goods, I wandered into the craft section. I found a really great disparity in the sizes and prices filament. Those who fish knew this; now we will too.

If you go into the jewelry making section, you will find 25 yards of 8 lb filament for $2.38. If you go into sporting goods, you will find 700 yards of 10 lb. test weight for about $6.50. Quite a difference.

Next time you need some for either fishing or jewelry, you will know the better price.
