Thread: Article: Choosing jig colors

Not sure if I can go by the whole lower it 4 feet to see if it disappears. Some water in Oklahoma has no more then 6-8 inches of visability no matter what color you use.

amen on that in IN. about a foot in sun lakes

I'm with you. It's about 10-inches down and "where'd it go?" on the AL River too. So let me rephrase that...if the lure disappears before 4-feet, change colors.
BTW- I owe a debt of thanks to P.J. Scudder of Orange County Pollution Control. He showed me a "clarity disk" about 35-years ago. His concern over our waters and his dedication to his job was commendable. He took the time to teach me about "non-source point pollution" which was greatly appreciated. P.J. really inspired my fish behavior and biology studies. Thanks P.J. Hope the fish are biting up there!

I'll definitely keep experimenting that is pretty much all I do. It could be nine inches or 2 and half feet I try to match colors with the water color its a less subtle approach I do agree with having at least some contrast.. Seems like the more I try the less it matters crappie seem to bite anything I think helps when there is a minnow attached. I like to feel a strong internal connection with the lure I'm fishing, It's hard to explain... Thanks for the tip.

Thanks that helps me a lot.

Thanks great post enjoyed read keep um come n !!!!!!

Interesting read

Good plan Slab, my wager had quite an algae bloom and visibility greatly reduced so when i fished same lures as previously worked, not so good
