    1/80th chub head on a #10 -#12 sickle. Found some Vmc #14 jig hooks and poured some today. Even smaller than #12 sickles at 3/8" length, probably use them for trout and gills.

    1/124 will that even sink?

    Use some Varivas 2.3# test Lemoni Ester or Varivas Blue Moon fluorocarbon 2# test and it will sink.

    I have some 1/80 and 1/100 but haven’t tried the 1/100 yet. My thought on going light is that when the fish stop eating whatever size you’re using, start going smaller and a lot of times they’re still eating.
    1/64 in my box every time out. Favorite jig comes out of a 1/32 mold and weighs 1/43 with a #8 sickle hook.

    I enjoy using a 1/80th under a small bobber in really shallow water near weeds or other vegetation. If I have to tip, which is very rare, I’ll use one maggot.
