MR, nice to hear from you especially knowing you are one advocating lighter lures and vintage gears, I’m a fan, lol. Now that’s out of the way just let me say when it comes to lures and jigs in particular I’m still in my infancy. I’ve been fishing on/off for the last 30+ years but been extremely enthusiastic about UL in the last 3 or so since joining CDC. Therefore my jigs and lures are what most members here recommend or use….like 1/64 oz trout magnet or from what I can find inexpensively ( meaning cheap.) Ill let the picture do most of the talking. Bottom line they all are over I believe 1gram and 1/64 being lightest.
