I would love to see a tied jig in that color. Monkey milk is a great color on my lake. A tied jig would be great shooting docks .

I must be out of the loop having never milked a monkey.

I'm assuming it is an off white. Do you have images?

The lure color Monkey milk is white with a blue tint also having black flake/ glitter in it. It is a great color in soft plastics in the lake I fish.

I have thought on this one. Still stumped as to how to get the hair, maribou, feathers, and chenille to take on the blue tint to make it monkey milk

I think the main color is white with a blue pearl added along with the flake. I don't know how we would give the flake effect but white and blue and a little gray would give the coloring we look for. Maybe varying the length somehow. I think a wooly bugger type would be easiest with the dark white chenille and a short blue hackle feather palmered into the grooves of the chenille might also get us close. Good challenge Ijerkum.
