A VERY GOOD AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY WAR PERIOD "SOLID 
SHOT" SIX (6) POUND CANNON BALL, ca. 1770s: In overall very good untouched 
condition. Solid shot, 3 1/2" diameter, approx. six 
(6) pound ball. In very good untouched condition with the 
expected heavy pitting and an untouched chocolate brown age patina overall. 
Some 
scattered roughness and an impact dent. A nice, authentic, medium-sized, 
Revolutionary War Period Cannon Ball, ca. 1770s.
Price: $325.00
 
Now if I drilled out a tapered hole, had it 
nickle/brass plated, the bead weight would be cut down to around 3.5 to 4 
pounds, hopefully.
 
With the hook weighing in itself at 3 pounds, I 
probably won't need to add any lead wrap to the shank.
 
This could work...a little pricy, though.  I 
wonder who's head made the impact dent...
 
Let's s  the 'Cannonball 
Caddis'?

Eh, just have someone hold it in place while you drive an armored car's

No lead wire required for that fly... a few months at the gym maybe wouldn't
hurt though.
Better be wearing your sunglasses when casting that one. You don't want it
