    Sorry for butting in, but are those 1/16's with #2's?
    Just observing and trying to learn.
    They look great.

    Not sure what he has there, but I mostly use #4 Sickle hooks in most sizes, but do have some 1/16 with #2 Sickle and some 1/8 with same. Even a few 1/8 with #1 Sickle hooks. When you get down to a 1/16 I have from #8 to #2 Sickle or #1 & 2's in regular bend. Smaller down to 1/80 with a #8 & #6 Regular bend. Have 1/64 in both regular bend and sickle in #6 & #4 and probably #8.

    Just comes down to what you want to fish with.

    The jigs I pictured are 1/8 oz walleye heads with #4 hooks. I got the heads from TNT Tackle. Thanks for the compliment.

    Man...those are sacalait jigs, forget the walleye! 1/8th with 4 would seem to be a great combination for a small lure (in length) probing brush vertically...or maybe I'm just confused. In length, how long are they? I really like a 2 to 2 1/2 lure and I like the extra weight for feel when in the brush b/c i like to walk wood and I think* most of the 1/8th oz heads I buy at local retailers are 2's or 1's which exposes to much hook beyond my plastics which I don't like.
    Maybe I've got my hooks confused.

    I know most of my jigs that are 1/16 or heavier are 2"- 2 1/2" so I would think his 1/8 are about that.
