I've tied quite a few bass jigs 1/0 and larger so decided a little change of pace might be good for me. These are 1/80 chubs,2mm eyes,#12 sickle hooks, marabou tail. Bodies are micro brite dubbing wire and wired magic dub.View attachment 4View attachment 5

1/80 ! I'd loose that under my finger nail . Great job . Tying that tiny stuff is like trying to put shoes on a flea.

I tied them for trout and gills,but cold water crappie eat them too. I've caught some nice crappie with this little sickle because of the wider gap. They stick really well and since it's almost weightless there's no leverage for fish to shake it free.

Sonny, how long would it take these to reach bottom in 20+ foot of water ? Probably have time to eat a sandwich. Those Perris gills would like them.

It would take 25-30 seconds I bet! Very nice ties. Almost everything will eat a small, dark jig. But those big bluegills should jump all over these!

That small I'd have to use a slip bobber rig or a fixed bobber setup and let it drift down under the bobber. Smallest I've ever used that with though is a 1/32nd.
