Picked this mold up used recently because I liked the general shape.  Trying to remember where I saw a head like this before? Maybe Keitech? Anyway I have yet to figure out what hooks go in the mold.  Tried a lot of different ones then just finally said the hell with it and hand bent some. The hooks in the pictures are all 2/0 light wire and the pins are neck down so I can use smaller weedguards. Oh and the weights are like 3/8 and 1/2oz.

Those look good 

Kinda look like the Arkie minnow jig

Could also work as a tube jig

What is difference from a Mustad 60 degree 32824 short bend jig hook?

Those are really thick hooks.

VMC #4930 & Mutad #32729 are lighter wire

32729 is what is in the pictures.

So the hook bend isn’t 60 degrees? What angle is ideal? 

Shorter bend length? Just trying to understand the problem.
