Is this too small for crappie?

Cole those look great, you chose well my friend.

Hate the barbs located that far back. Fine for solid bodies but tube jigs are gonna keep pulling down.

top 2 jigs heads are ok for a start , the collars will eat your plastics up fast .
line weight should be 6 lb .

The one with the bigger hook is too far back?

Small is good as many lures emulate small fry and every thing that swims eats fry.
The small lures work quite well especially during the hard water season.
My go to lures range from 1/45 to 1/16 once with # 10 to #6 hooks.

In the middle look like #4 hook, which is my stardard hook for crappie. I use #2 sometimes when the bite get aggressive and crappie trend to swallow the whole jig, but the jig get snagged a lot too. Most of 1/32oz head come with #6 which also work fine for crappie but there will be a lot of deep hooking. I order custom 1/32oz with #4 sickle hook.

Yeah that’s what I got. The middle got a #6 and the bottom got a #7. The big on at the bottom is #4 but is a bit long, it comes out right at the end of a 2” baby shad or paddle tail or whatever.

Don’t neglect feather (marabou) jigs. 1/32 and 1/16 oz are deadly. You can catch loads on one jig, and you don’t have to worry about matching jig head to body.

Rabbit hair jigs work good also. Great action.

I have 2 types of those rn but haven’t caught any one them. How do you fish them? Just swim them or jig them
