<p>Ive even super glued a small wire barb on the teensy jigs, right behind the head. Just kink a few bits of copper wire and attach them to the hook shank. Its minute, tedious work about like tying fly's.</p>
<p>I get one 1/100th, down to 1/32 jigs on ebay, mysefl.</p>

What size hooks are on those? I prefer around and 8, 10 or 12 but anything in the range would work great. I thought you only had the teeny tiny sizes. 1/32 and 1/16 are my favorite but as I stated previously, 1/8 and 1/4 come in handy when it is windy. And in Easter Iowa, it is always a little windy.

not a problem, I carry jig heads from 1/250th of an ounce all the way to 1/4 of an ounce, ever need anything holler, I have lots of weird sizes and shapes :)<br />
I use some 1/8 and 1/16th some, but usually only in the summer when the gills go deep.

Thank you for the offer, but right now I am having pretty good luck with TC Tackle's jig heads. They are only round in shape but they are shorter shanks with 1/16th oz and 1/8th oz weights. The wind is blowing all the time in my neighborhood and I can use the weight. Plus in my state, two hooks are allowed per line so I tie a fly about 12 inches above and basically make a drop shot with the lower bait being a possibility as well. Thank you again for the offer though.

I've got a guy making me 1000 1/80th ounce jigs on #8 hooks, if you are interested in some let me know, they will have no barb, round raw heads, I'm getting them unpainted so I can paint them myself, I like to have a few colors on hand.<br />
I think they are going to run me about 12 cents each.<br />
I super glue some of my small grubs on my hooks, seems to work pretty well for me, you ever try that ?

Hey Ryan, I have found that the only 2 options that could be done in your case is if you can find the smaller jigheads that are packaged with the Renosy Keystone Minnow that have no barb at all, or use a pair of needle-nosed pliers to mash the barb down and then file down what is left on the jigheads. Then use a drop of Super Glue to keep the plastic bait from slipping down or off the hook. There may be a member of this fine web site that either pours his own jig heads or knows somebody that…

Did you check either Bass Pro Shops catalog or Cabelas out? I know that both of these spots sell jig heads of all shapes and sizes. Nick.
