By the way welcome to the forum........

The fishing store on forest ln in Garland used to sell a 3/32nd oz jig. However they are no longer there. I beleive they moved somewhere in rockwall county. You might try Barlows. I used to use them alot. I had a 3/32 jig mold. I sold it to white rock richard. 3/32nd is perfect where a 1/16th is to small and 1/8th is to big. Its just right.

Thanks guys.I'll give Jeff a holler.Great site you guys have here.Would love to have one with this much info for NC.Slayer,thought about pouring my own but right now barely find time to
fish.You're right about the 3/32 being perfect(most days anyway).Hard to believe it makes a difference but it does.Thanks again.Jp

jpin nc this is lee D AND L JIGS I have 3/32 10.00 for 100 214 334 1234 or 972 271 7172

JP, you have return email.

Try Bass Pro in their fly fishing department.

Jeff is the answer for ya, I am sure! He does a great job!

Thanks for the response Jeff.At this time 1000 is just more than i need.Just tying bucktails for personal use and don't lose that many.

Hey Jerry. If you post what you are trying to do, you might be able to come up with some other folks who are looking for that same size and can get to that quantity.

Sorry that it has to be that high of a quantity. Unfortunately, as anyone who pours their own heads can tell you, you just don't make a lot of money on them. That's not the bad part...but going out and purchasing a new mold at $28-35 puts you in a hole that can take a long time to get out of.

If you'd like, I can post up and see if anyone else is interested in that size and style. If we get enough quantity, I can get the mold.

Let me know if you're interested.

JP,
Was Lee Barnes @ D and L jigs above not able to help you?

I assume you are looking for plain round head with no collar? 3/32 has been one of my favorite sizes in certain conditions. I have tied some over the barb collar by just smashing down the barb first. They don't come out too bad if you use small chenile, you can keep them from getting too bulky. I have also used a razor knife and side cutters to trim off the whole collar so I wound up with a plain round head. You lose a little bit of weight but they're still a good bit heavier than 1/16.

Hard to believe these are so hard to find. It's one of my favorite sizes - WillieFindum on here pours them with #4 hooks, but I don't think he sells them anymore. His have the barb collar. I just spent about 30 minutes on google looking and had no luck. Barlows used to sell them except I think the choice was #2 or #4 hooks but I see they don't offer them anymore. I'll keep an eye out and let you know if I find them.
I can't believe nobody on the whole internet has these - we probably just havent found the right place yet.

In your searching, if you find a 3/32 mold for roundhead with ball collar (not barb collar) please let me know. We been looking for one of those. The ball collar don't tear up plastic tubes near like the barb collar does.

Thanks guys.I gave Lee a call and believe he's
gonna be able to hook me up.Jeff I know what you mean about the cost of the mold and all.I'll be tying bucktails withem mostly for castn.Just an
oddball size and hard to find(huh Jon).Jon,I use the ball head with collar and barb.Tried trimming
off the collar too but didn't like losing the weight.Tying with the barb on leaves a small gap
on top but the fish don't seem to mind.Don't know why more folks who like to cast and countdown aren't using these.I guess convience
of the standard sizes.I saw a mold on ebay a while back but it had the collar and barb.Lee may have what you need.Should get mine in few.
