Pat,

I tied this one on a 3X long #10 hook. It sinks as fast as any of my 1/32 crappie jigs. I'm out of #8 hooks, as that would have been my choice, but this will work just fine (just a tad smaller.) The foam is 1.5 mm thick. Tail and legs need to be shortened a bit.

Ok on your choice of hooks for most of your flies. As I get older, my choice of hooks tend to get larger. I use mostly #8 -#10 with a #2, #4, and sometimes a #12. Anything smaller than a #12, my eyes and fingers part company.
