Is this too small for crappie?

Absolutely not.

Definitely not. I use 1/64, 1/32 and 1/24 jigs almost exclusively.

1/32, 1/16, 1/16 with larger hook from top to bottom. Does this look good?

Hey, Cole ... I use 1/32oz & 1/16oz heads with a #2 Aberdeen hook in both sizes ... so, any of the three in your pics will work fine. Use the head size (weight) for rate of fall ... and the hook size for the size plastics you put on your jighead, so that the gap between the hook point and back/top of the plastic bait is big enough to allow the hook point room to hook the fish easily (as shown in your pic of the rigged jig/plastic).

BTW ... nothing wrong with the hook sizes, jighead weights, or the color & style of that bait.

catch them every spring on 1/64 and 1/80 oz jigs, even now.

thank you ! I am using the plastic in the picture just for a comparison to show what it looks like. thanks again! I just wanted to make sure that my hook sizes weren't to big or small to hook crappie (or too far up the bait)

thanks so much!

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

I’d say you’re in business. My size goes from 8 to 2, mostly smaller stuff lately but bigger for trolling.

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