Ranger. What do you think #1 or #2 hooks? Could you break it down for us? Like what do you like with a 1/16 oz jig, 1/8oz, 1/4 oz? Thanks- trying to get ready to rumble.

2 for 1/16 ( wish my mold would hold the #1)
1 for 1/8
1/0 for 1/4

What mold you have that won't hold a size 1 in a 1/16 oz?
Both my Jacobs standard 1/16 oz and Do-it weedless can do a size 1 hook.
My Do-It will work well with a 1 on a 1/16 but it's modified. I usually use a 2 due to winter time and smaller baits. It's a good all around hook size.
1/16- 1 or 2 usually a 2
1/8- 2 or 1
3/16- 1/0
1/4- 1/0 or 2/0
5/16- 2/0
I had my 1/16 progressive mold milled out where the point sits to make it hold a 1 hook.
Just how I do it......Ranger

It seems we lost that color question a while back.
Same with color of head, eyes or color of hook it all boils down to whatever gives the person fishing the most confidence.
