Default Jig weight choice. Whats yours?

Ok, I realize the need for different weights of jigs. Slow fall presentation, fast fall presentation, shallow/deep pressentation. But overall, what would be your weight of choice most of the time and why? The last couple years, jigs have started to really click with me, but I'm still learning the fine points. I remember Zooker saying he prefered 1/4 oz. jigs mostly because he prefered the slower fall rate and easieer control of the jig. At a recent seminar I attended, jigs were briefly discussed and heavy 3/4 - 1 oz. jigs were talked about for their fast fall rate causing reaction bites. From what I've seen in articles over the years, 1/2 oz jigs tend to be the weight used most often on average. Myself, I find the 3/8 oz jigs my favorite overall and 1/2 to 3/4 oz for deeper weedlines. The 1/4 oz size has it's place too, especially as a swim jig. So for you jig fisherman, what is your overall prefered weight jig, the one you wouldn't be without?
