1/124 jig heads

Hi, I was looking for some 1/124 oz. jig heads with around a #10 hook. A sickle hook would be even better if it can be had. If any of you can or know of someone who can make these I would appreciate the information.

Holy cow thats small but u can go to a fly fishing shop or online store and im sure get down that small i just started tying bream flys and i dont know what size they are but im sure they are in that range

i have 1/100 mold i think the hooks are 12s.you could try slotted tungsten beads on sz 10 sickles.

You could try adding a bead to the hook to get that weight, or wrap the head of the hook with some wire. Beads are sold anywhere fly tying stuff is sold, you just slip it on the hook. I made a bunch of bream jigs using this, so they sink nice and slow.

Yes a small amount of lead wire could be used as your weight, but to find a 1/124 oz head is going to be hard and for sure with a Sickle hook. Keep in mind even a 1/80 mold only really pours a 1/64 Oz in real weight and that is a tiny piece of lead. As some have mentioned there are beads like the slotted tungsten beads and somewhere there is a weight chart of each as to it's weight and I may even have one some place. I will look.

I am in the fly fishing business. 1/64 is about as small as I can get. We use several styles including shad darts for shad on the fly rods. I too would suggest a bead on the hook. Even a heavy wire hook adds some weight for a quicker sink rate if that is what you are looking for.

Thanks everyone. I saw some instructions for tying a cap spider fly for bream fishing and his recommendation was a 1/124 oz jig. I am sure I will try the beads and the lead wire.

Sky Pilot one thing to keep in mind, a 5/32 painted Tungsten Bead is .02 Oz or close to 1/48. Oh and a small amount of lead wire wrapped around maybe 1/4" of hook shank. With the light weight your looking for something that falls slow and here it is!

Also if your looking for a bream fly/jig, try the fly. Get a low end fly rod and reel and get after them with a Bream Killer. Here are some I did, but keep in mind the pattern calls for White legs and I just decided to get a little extra could help with a little different color.
You can also do it 2 ways, one with the tail and one without.

I would go with the lead weight wire. I get a few really small ones tied up every year and that is what he uses. I'd tie my own but I just can't see em that small!

I went through this same dilemma a few months ago. Finding someone to pour will be tough. I did find the 1/124 at Backwoods in Fort Worth though. Also like was mentioned, you can try bead/wire too. I also had a boat load of 1/80 poured. I figured that was close enough.
