What's your most productive color jig to use on T-Ville?
If I tell ya then you have to leave a few fish for me:) I tend to catch more on red/chartruese tail or red/white tubes. Sometimes I use a pink head but mostly unpainted. I have more confidence in these colors on T-ville and use them the most. How about your favorite?
Take care,
Greenfish
Mid-South jigs....orange and green chartuse body, and Black with green chartuse...my ol' partner swore on the black and pink chartuse! I always use a chartuse green and black round jig head with a red hook 1/16th oz....
Because T-ville stays somewhat dingy most of the time I tend to use the darker colors, Black/chartreuse, Red/White, or Black/Purple. I make some of my own jigs and plan on trying some Pink/Dark Blue. For tomorrow though I will be dipping a few minners also.
Wichita--You be sure to herd em' up and drive a few my way! I'll be waiting for a Big School to show up.
I'll tell ya what has been my most productive color on T-ville, but it may only have been so productive because it was the color combo I threw the most :p
I started out using BPS Sparkle Squirts in Elec Blue/Chartreuse ... could always depend on that color to get me bit. The BPS SS tubes are hollow tubes, and I had problems with them tearing up or them machinegun mouthed Bluegill yankin 'em down on the jig hook :D --- When I went to solid body tubes (CrappiePro/Renegade brands), I didn't have that problem any longer. But, I did have another problem ... I couldn't find any blue/char ones that had silver sparkle in the blue body. Crappie Pro even stopped selling their blue/char .... says they didn't get enough orders to continue that color :eek:
Anyway ... I switched over to the green/char combo, and have had decent success with it (the few times I've been there to use it ;) ). Junebug/chartreuse would be a good alternative to Elec Blu/Char.
I'm talking plastic tubes, of course, but CB Slider grubs are good choices, too.
I can always depend on a Chartreuse Marabou Roadrunner, when nothing else seems to be working. ;)
I've used a bunch of different colors, there ... but always seemed to come back to these. I'm throwing them on a 1/16oz weedless unpainted jighead, and using a 1/16oz Roadrunner, too. Most times I'm casting to blowdowns, especially those on shaded banks, and those that have over 8ft of water over the tops. From first light til noonish is when I've had the best luck, on that type of cover. And it should still work, well into July. That is, of course, if the flooding hasn't pulled all the blowdowns off the banks. If so, I can only hope that it has also killed a few more trees, along the shoreline, and they'll become the "new" blowdowns :D
Ya'll leave a few for seed, and post your trip results !!
... luck2ya ... cp :cool:
