If you have not tried them, give the new arkie pro curl tail minnow a try in the 2.5 inch model. I saw the yellow and white ones at Walmart for less than $2 a pack and figured I would give them a try since they were a little larger than what I normally use. I have gone 4 or 5 trips since then and these out fish everything else put together. They are very soft and don't hold up great, but the crappie jump all over them and hold on. I went back last night and bought 10 more packs in assorted colors. I am not sure if it is the color, action, or the little larger size, but they work. I would have 8 different jigs out in different styles and colors and catch over half on this one jig. I have been rigging it with a road-runner head.
