Set the steel to em and keep a tight line. I have caught them on 1/64th with tiny hook. Bigger hooks do allow u some room for error.

3/8 oz and 1/2 oz. I can cast across the Big Sandy river.

I just checked with Monk's, he has 1/8 oz with #1 hooks - 14 for $9.99.

Use a drop loop so the jig sits more vertical this will help with hook set in the roof of the mouth.
