I use size 2 hooks on 1/8 jig heads. Sometimes I use size 4 hooks but really depends on the bait I am using.

#2 Aberdeen. a VMC specifically. I'm not a fan of sickles.

#4-1/32
#2-1/16,1/8, 1/4

Takem, you and I fish a lot alike. Same hook sizes. The big diff is I don't really care what hook I use. I bend every hook point a lil to one side and fish it.

Just building them the way most guys fish,,,remember grumpy, I don’t fish anymore….I used to use 1/0 sickle mostly on my fish if not larger,,,fish round the Big 4, especially during the spawn , are huge here,,

I saw one of those pots at a yard sale a couple years ago for almost nothing. Wish I had snapped it up
