In muddy water the crappie typically hold tighter to cover.

    What "bright" colors do you recommend. Here on Ky I have always used dark colors like Black/chartuse, dark green/chartuse, red/chartuse/ & dark orange/chartuse, & had real good luck. I usually fish them on a floresent orange & floresent green 1/8 or 1/16 oz head. In the past 2 years I have started experimenting with the ''glow" jigs in chartuse.

    What colors work for yall? Muddy water's muddy water. I'd like to try some new colors & see how they do. I have never had any luck with white. I'm always interrested in learning new tricks.

    I also agree that adding some meat (minnow) makes a difference. I also use te bait pump & load my tubes up with nibblets.

    Thanks in advance.

    Went to North KY today and the bay I was fishing was about half muddy and half slight stain. i didnt do great but I brought home enough for a couple meals:D I would say that the majority of all the fish I caught ( had a lot of dinks) came from the muddy areas. As was mentioned earlier the muddy was anywhere from .5-1.5 degrees warmer. i caught fish anywhere from 8-14 FOW. I was using Bobby Garland Baby Shad in Key Lime. I tried them in cajuin cricket, electric chicken and red chartruese with no luck.
