Inverse gamma prior in rjags model

How do I specify the Inverse Gamma prior of (0.5, 0.5) in rjags?

I tried

prec ~ dgamma(1.0/2.0, 1.0/2.0)
tau <- sqrt(1/prec)

Not sure is this the right way to specify.

Can you try making 3 different parameters (prec, sigma2, and tau (or sigma))?

sigma2 <- 1/prec
tau <- sqrt(sigma2)
