Thread: jig colors

I used to guide offshore big game charters and I guess I carried a lot of that logic over to crappie fishing. When in deep water offshore you are trying to attract fish that are 30, 40, sometimes 100' beneath with you. There are times when color makes a big difference in getting a bite. But usually that means you aren't fishing active fish and you're finessing them to bite. A lot of the time an actively feeding fish with eat anything that comes within its visual range. I like presentations that will attract fish from as far away as possible so I gravitate to bigger lures and solid, opaque colors for dirty turbid waters.

ANY bait the Bobby Garland puts out is good...like the rest...good for certain times, certain conditions..I tend to fish bigger baits..sometimes smaller baits work better...I usually don't change to them soon enough, if at all

I agree 95 percent of my baits are bobby garland and I am very pleased. I don't care for there jig heads tho, there is a small bait store called the tackle box in mccomb ms that has some real nice jig heads. They are a homemade pore with sicle hooks any size you want, he told me a guy out of new Orleans makes then don't no if that's true or not.

purple/ chartreuse , blue/ chartreuse and pearl/white
