I dont know if im going to explain this well but ill try my best. The example i have are the snap-swivels with different sizes in those wheel like compartments. I was wondering if they made a kit for tube fishing, that contains many different sizes of jigheads to rig tubes, or just in general a bunch of different hooks and or jighead kit, i have tubes but would like to rig them the different ways, i havent done tube fishing before so i dont really know many methods. I thought it would be easier with the many pieces needed sold in one kit, so i can purchase them in one shot. Any help would be much appreciated.

Yeah Burley thats exactly what im talking about, thanks man!! your totally right they do give  too many of those tiny jigheads , but if thats the only option it might still be purchased  ;), besides those jigheads what else would go with them on tubes mainly and if possible other soft baits

It isn't really the only option.  Cheap, but by no means the only option.

You could pour your own or buy specific sizes in bulk.  If you're fishing tubes, either get tube heads or T-rig them.

Jig heads for tubes:

Get Tube Jig Hooks. These are the ones with the weight along the hook's shank, beginning right after the hook eye and going back towards the point.

Have them in various weights, starting with 1/8 and going up to 3/8.

Select the jig hook size based on the current and wind and wet the hook.

Slip the wet hook inside the tube and force the eye out of the top front of your tube.

Slip the hook's point under the tube's skin to make it weedless.

You are ready to fish your tube.

Buying a box of jig heads is a waste of money.  Select the jig hook, or jig head of your choice, in various weights and use them.

Even the ball jigs can work but if you use the jig hooks with the weight along the hook's shank the tube will fall in a more attractive spiral to the fish.
