Yes the 1/16 would be a typo. The weights I found (at diffrent web sites) where 1/6 and 1/4 oz. hope that helps.

I live in the dark ages. I haven't even herd of it. What does it look like?

This is a very old trout lure. I think you've probably seen them. Visualize a 3/8" wide strip of thin flat metal, about 1 1/2" long. Now bend it in a tight "U" shape with one end a bit longer than the other. A split ring is attached to the long end, the hook at the bottom of the "U" and there you have it, a Super Duper. Great trout slayers. I will try to scan one and post it.

I picked up a #104 at Dicks yesterday I am too whimpy I wanted to try it out today but the rain kept me in. I swear my back kills when it rains. I can hardly load my kayak.
