Those nylon bushings get expensive real fast. I gave up and started center drilling dowels. Drill a hole in a wood block (clamped to your drill table) about 3/4" deep, the same size as your dowel, swap out drill bits, put a short piece of dowel in the hole, and drill 1/2 way through, flip it and drill the other end. String a bunch on a wire, soak in your sealer, dry......spacers galore good to go.
You can also use tubing as a cheap spacer, but you lose some buoyancy as the space will fill with water.

last year
was the year of the spook...big pogys in the prov aera...I would be in a line of 50 people throwing poppers and..the blues would swim by all the poppers to hit my spook (or who ever had a spook on) it was nuts.. at least 20-1 hits over the poppers....they would also hit a pencil that was glided...pickey bluefish...only a few of us had spooks...most people off line don't use them, very few had pencil poppers too
