Fine round living rubber

Recommended Posts

Honestly it's subjective, no wrong answer or wrong way

i use 1/4 primarily, I use a full tab and just one. That's what works for me

i fish deep clear lakes  in Southern California I want the rubber to have maximum movement.

 

i recommend experimenting, waste some rubber, ultimately I did what the fish told me, they like sparse.I like sparse. 

 

Peace be with you

Fine round rubber comes in a roll about 1" - 1.25" wide and has approximately 60 strands.  For me personally, if I was doing a 1/8oz to 1/4oz jig I'd use the entire width or 60 strands and cut it to the right length.  For larger jigs I may take 2 lengths of the entire width, 120 strands or maybe a little less, it depends on the type of jig. Fine rubber doesn't have a lot of bulk so you need to use a lot of strands if you want it to have a good profile and move water, I like using in combination with silicone or with regular grade living rubber because it moves a lot.
