and put the hurt on many fly collectors as well.

if i collect them, frame them and dont use them, whats the harm??

Those who have stockpiles of tying beads etc...would be up a creek.

if they are made of brass or tungsten, whats the harm here also??

To go to stainless steel wiring or something would really raise prices through the roof.

stainless steel wire probably cant be wound around the diameter of the hook shank as easily as lead or tin wire thus it would be unusable.
