I'd have never guessed 32nd's because they look so well proportioned Jim. Can't wait to attempt these as I have jigs down to 100th oz. here and up to 1/16 and will make several types . Thanks..............

1/64th and mostly 1/32nd ounce.

OK JIM , I see em now and know why they are liked by Jeffrey, SIMPLE AND STAIGHTFORWARD TYING. IS that a 64th. or 80th?

Jen...thanks! I'll check them out!

Mark...yes, sparklebraid and crafthair, although other materials work well also. Check out my blog post I put up yesterday about these jigs.

Jim-I see you're using sparkle braid. Check out Togans Fly Shop online and look up Bill's Bodi Braid...Lots of colors for this
