    Default Brown and...????


    So, I ended up with some brown maribou from barlows, somehow. Was wondering what kindda combination you folks would tie, and what kindda water would you fish it? If ya got any pics, that would be cool too.

    Brown with orange or burnt orange for crawdad colors. Any color water will work but they stand out in stained to muddy waters.

    Nice jigs Rad. I mix brown with all the other earthtones, a touch of orange and yellow with dominant brown looks awful good.

    I would use it with a mixed tail colors of Brown and Orange. Maybe a mixed or variegated chenille on Brown and Orange.

    One of my favorites is a brown body with a yellow chart tail. Could try the reverse. Brown also looks good with green chartreuse and orange.
