A Couple Of Jig-Making Questions

First, what size hooks do you guys use when pouring 1/32 oz jigs?

Second, what are your go-to mail order houses for buying pouring and tying supplies?

Thanks

GF

Pretty sure the 1/32 I have are #6 sickle and the 1/64 are #8 sickle

John, I have ordered from Grandpa Bob's once and didn't have any problem. I ordered from him because he has a color of new age chenille that I couldn't find anywhere else. But I have seen some negative reviews about it taking forever to get the order back. Or not getting it at all. What has been your story with Grandpa Bob's? I'm hoping that you're going to tell me that things are much more efficient with him now.

The last time I tried to order from him, my paypal would not go through, site needs updating maybe? I had to order from eBay. The one time I did order from him ab a year ago, I had no problems

Ordered from this bum last august and never receive my order every order has had a problem $70.00 he stole

For a 1/32 jig I use a size 6 sickle hook. I most of my tying materials from EBay or Barlows (local for me).

I use a # 8 hook. I use Netcraft and Barlow's for components.

I use primarily #8 in 64 and 32, #6 in 32, and#4 in 32 and 16. Not sure if I can get a #4 in an 1/8 butt have use #1’s in them. Some folks have special molds for walleye and other species, little hooks in heavy heads.

If you paid through PayPal, file a complaint. It may take a while, but you should eventually get your money back.

I buy all my hooks from Captain Hook. Good quick service and decent on prices. Have had about 8 orders and no problems.

32 oz. Jig....# 6 hook
24 oz. Jig....# 6 hook
16 oz. Jig....# 4 hook
