It varies between models and manufacturers. The ratio might be quite different - generally a lighter weight jigs sink slower and cast shorter distance, a heavier jigs sinks faster and cast further -- depend on the weather condition (wind speed) and your personal perferecne (boat or shore), both type could be useful. I have listed the size/length/weight ratio for the popular Yo-zuri Aurie-Q jigs. hopefully this will help you.



Cheers
