    that is small , it probably wont make any difference if the hook is tiny on a jighead that small .
    they will likely swallow it anyway and at that point a hook is a hook
    1/80 or 1/100 might even be lighter than a larger hook ,creating an imbalance in the lure/jig/fly that would tend to make it "tail" heavy and not the best ever presentation .
    interesting thread , keep us informed as to the success or lack of please , who knows it might be a super killer set up .

    I poured 1/80 a few years back and abandoned it. Too small for the way I fish and the heads always came loose and rattled around on the hook or came off altogether. There are those folks that pour them and I would either buy from them or use the split shot idea. The ones that I did get to use I powder painted with a heavy coat to help hold it in place. The beads are probably the best idea and with a little research would be a snap to assemble and use.
