Oh I see now 32nd oz and 1/16th. I was thinking they were 64th oz.

they are also great for cast and retrieve without a float.  4lb line will cast them ok but i rig most of my spinning reels with 8/2 superline (gliss or suffix nano braid) for longer casts.  i tip with gulp waxie or 1" minnow.  deadly for summer crackers and gills in the shade during mayfly hatches.

Hoping I can get the Jelly Jigs started again with hopefully some new stuff in the future.

Thanks, Jeffrey for the photo. Looks to be a big eye painted on a bucktail-wrapped jig or maybe fake fur. Again thanks....
