Thread: lead poisoning

    Re: lead poisoning

    Green. When I gutted the bream, the rig was a 1/0 bream hook, with the ball sinker tied only 3cm,s from the hook. The hook it self, was caught
    in the gut opening, with the ball sinker laying in the stomach.
    A very primative rig if you ask me. It had been there for quit some time.
    The stain was at the bottem of the stomach, and it was black in colour,
    and the sinker had made a small groove, and stretched the gut with its
    weight of it. The sinker was on the bottem, with the hook tied just above.

    Sanchez, solder that has a high tin content melts at a lower temperatures, and is usually desirable (as you already may know). With the lower the melting point, lower volatilization of lead vapour occurs. I'm not sure, but perhaps you also have a good ventilation or a system of fume hood extractors? Nevertheless you probably will have a detectable amount of lead in your system, but it is probably below the safe working limits and no worries to health.
