I have been toying around with that. I have been using the 1/32 Double Cross jig head that TM makes. The Trout Magnet fits the double collar just right. The thing about that head is that it has a 3# hook....so the little ones can't quite get it. I forgot to mention the black/chartreuse. It too is a good color. I have also been using a Crappie Magnet body on a Trout Magnet head....but the TM head does not hold a Crappie Magnet body on too well. That day a few weeks back at Pickwick I caught a lot of those Gills using the 1/32 ounce head with the Trout Magnet body. Those fish were in 30 feet of water and dang...it takes a long time for a 1/64 ounce head to fall 30 feet....even with a split shot...LOL.
