It seems we can still use them though even after that date, just it will be illegal to purchase and or sell..

"prohibit a person from manufacturing, selling, or purchasing a fishing weight or sinker in California that has no cross section greater than or equal to two centimeters in length, is under 50 grams in mass, and contains more than 0.1% lead by weight."
Hmmm. This looks decently ok? I dont have may weights I currently use that meet that criteria. Our 6 oz dropper loop weights are bigger across than 2 cm and weigh more than 50g. 2 oz carolina rig ok too? Full disclosure...I didnt read the entire bill.

Trout split shot, bass weights (texas, carolina etc), and tiny egg sinkers look like they might be the ones affected.
