    A 5/32 tungsten bead weighs .0139oz. Took a bit to actually find this one.

    Nice looking jig! A little over 1/80 Oz for that one is light for sure!

    I use emerald shiner a lot, never have tried it with duck tail. Looks really good, I bet it will catch them for sure!!!!

    Thanks guys... I was hoping that jig was a little heavier lol... Wonder which bead I would have to get to be around 1/32 or 1/48? I have had those forever and I used a lot of 1/100 oz when I probably bought them but I'm fishing a bigger deeper lake now and probably need around a 1/32 oz

    I believe I have some in my tying room that are about 1/32?? I question if my memory is right or not, but I will check tomorrow when I go in there.

    Good looking jig. That color combo is hot around here.
