Number 6 jig hooks?

[Dongotto]

Is a number six to small to use on a 32oz or is that fairly common for those that tie jigs?

thats all i use. And pour alot of them with size 6..also i make alot of size 8 for the guys here in WV for trout.

As Bug said NOPE, that's one of the great things about pouring your own you can switch hook sizes and come up with what really works for you. Enjoy!!!!

You need to consider what brand of hook you use. A #6 Eagle Claw 579 jig hook and a #6 sickle hook will not have the same gap. Small hooks can catch some big fish. Seems like they don't hang up as much either.

I've made lots of 32oz and I only use a number 6 for em. Works good for me. I bend the hook out a little bit before I fish it and I've cought lots of fish like that.

i even pour 1/32 size 4

It really depends on two things . one will it fit the mold ,no. 6 fits 1/32 fine. Two what type of pattern you are going to use because if the pattern has a lot of bulk you might need a larger hook for point exposure. Using a lot of materials can get packed on the strike and reduce hook penetration.

I have some 1/32nd molds that will take a #10. M y main pours are roundhead 1/32nd #8.

I used to use alot of 1/32 jigs with #10 hooks. I liked them alot for bluegill. Only problem i ever had was with skin hooking larger fish like bass and catfish.

i also just finished pouring 1000 size 1/24-6 sickles...Size 6 is a very versatile hooks
