What NIB and Jigman said. Fluffing the powder is important when you're dipping them.
I use a Wagner hot air paint stripper to heat the jig and then dip it - if the finish is a little globby I just pass it over the heat gun again to smooth it out and then bake them. With the lead hazards though you don't want to bake them in the same oven the missus makes brownies in.
Make sure the eyes are clean before you bake them, though - it'll make life a little easier.
I also 'pickle' the jig heads first in vinegar to etch the surface of the lead - it seems to help with adhesion a little, too although I haven't yet found a combo that will make them 'rock-proof' for my area.
