I’m running low on my tube jig supply and need to re-order. Been awhile since I’ve ordered these, and can’t tell brand. 

What do people like for the smaller 2.5 inch tubes? Probably 1/8 oz maybe 3/16, I prefer the 60 degree line tie. Am guessing what I have been using is 3/0 but not sure...

I use Northland Tackle Inner Tube Short Shank Jig Heads for 2.5in tubes.

Get bit baits sells them in bulk for a discount.

They use Mustad Ultra Point hooks.

This helps, I'm pretty sure this is the same tube jig I had before but its been so long since I needed to order. Order is now on its way from TW... of course with a few other goodies some monkey threw in there!

3/0 seems big for a 2.5" tube.  I use 3/0 and 4/0 on 4.5" tubes and the 3/0 comes out inside the body of the tube about 1/2" above the tendrils and the 4/0 comes out right at the tendrils.

Biggest I use for those small tubes is 2/0. Just made a bunch for a guy using size 1 Gamakatsu.
