I think he's saying that if a 1 ounce lead jig had a volume of X, that to get the weight of his special jigs you would need to add the weight of tungsten that would occupy X/2 and the weight of epoxy that would occupy X/2. Assuming he did indeed use a 1 to 1 ratio of tungsten and epoxy resin by volume. 

thank you, I'm not the best with words or math

If the dog (choke chain) collar plug knocker for cranks has already been listed, disregard this post.  Parts:  Choke chain (make loops that will catch CB hooks), broken Ugly Stick cut down to first eye, retired cranking reel, 65# or larger (old) braid, large clip but small enough to not slip over crank bait, two heavy zip ties (one will work if strong enough).   This probably will work best from a boat where you can position directly over the lure you are trying to retrieve.  Sometimes trebles will need to be replaced but not often.
