    Default What size hooks


    What size hooks do I need for tying jigs? I want to tie a hair jig with no head, want a 90 degree turn to the hook eye.

    Depends on what you are targeting and how big you want your jig profile to be. Probably #4 or #2 would suit you well.

    Also depends on what kind of hair. Like if it's kip tail not sure I would go big!
