Skip's right. I'm in an area that has oxbow lakes scattered around, some of them 5 miles apart, but you won't use the same jig in all of them. In some of them I haven't found a color that works at all. Only minners will do the job. I've even noticed that through the course of the day as the sun moves, you'll have to change to keep them biting. If it rained last night, the jig you used day before yesterday will not work.
