    Default tungsten jigs


    does anybody know where to get tungsten jigs, in the 1/16-1/64oz range with size 4-10 hooks?
    I only fish on days that start with T, like tuesday, thursday, today, and tomorrow.

    I would need to weigh my beads tomorrow, but I do have tungsten beads I can tie on a jig hook, like a sickle?

    Let me know if this is what your looking for.

    They work alright, not necessarily just like a jig head, but close. Here is a pic of a few I tied back when I first got the beads and they just sit there. I would have thougt guys in states that can't use lead would have wanted these, but I do not sell any. They are not cheap for sure, but they will work and look pretty good.

    thanks those look great. yeah i just priced them and it looks about $20 for 2 dozen, way too much for what i want them for.

    I recently bought some #8 & #6 jig hooks and some 4.8 mm (3/16") diameter tungsten beads. I tied the beads in place on the hooks and am ready to go.

    Cost has always been the problem with them.
