I do some hand ties that are a wee bit longer than one inch.
My favorite jigs are 1/64 oz jig heads with miniature black/chartreuse tube jigs, which are under 1". I also like 1/64th oz hand tied Blue Truse jigs from Pepop
.
I do use split shot to get them down faster but I've caught 16-inch crappie and an 8 lb bass using 1/64 oz jigs in the past.
Last year I had success using 1/32 oz jig heads with small soft plastic jigs hand-poured from Limits Tackle.
I've always thought smaller was better.

jay the baptist thanked you for this post
Not always targeting crappie, but have picked up a few on these:
Mister Twister 1" Lil Bit
Betts 1" split tail
Daredevil Skeeters 1"
Hilderbrant #0 Flickers 1"
Yozuri Snap Beans 3/4" & 1"
And some very well tied 1" jigs purchased years ago from a gentleman in North Carolina.

Here is a few of my tiny baits. They are 1 and 1 1/2 inches in length.

Don't have pics but I picked up my two PB (length) fish on 1/64oz hand tied jigs. One was solid black, which is my favorite color. The other was an oddball I threw together with some colors I rarely used, orange and yellow.
