For me, I want nice opaque colors especially chartreuse for fishing the muddy waters down here. Like the Southern Pro Glow Charteuse color Versus, say, the Arkie glitter chartreuse.

The way I see it after studying some recent research on a crappies eye, in muddy water especially deeper than five or more feet, the fish can't hardly see more than a couple of feet at best. But, the fish can see a shadow or silhouette passing over them for quite a ways, and crappie as we know feed up more than not anyways. So I want a nice deep color and fat bait to create as nice and defined a silhouette as possible. Now I'm not saying color doesn't matter when they get close, but I feel I can attract one from farther away this way.

Do you think the knew bobby garland baits are any good? I'm talking about the real small plastics can't think of the name.
