Jigheads - ounces to grams

[Captian_Zero]

I usually see reports etc on SP fishing that refer to jighead sizes in ounces. Having been to school after the introduction of the metric system this meant very little to me. Also some jigheads, like the squidgy jigheads, are sold in grams.

For the information of anyone else that may be confused

1 oz = 28.35 grams.

Hope this helps.

1/12oz 2.36
1/10oz 2.84
1/8oz 3.54
1/4oz 7.09
1/2oz 14.18
