What color, weight jig is your go to color starting out on the big 4..you best confidence lure
I mainly use a 1/8 oz jig head color is usually orange, pink, or chart. I usually start out with a orange/chart or black/chart jig silver/chart is always a good one for me also. I mostly fish grenada!
Pink blue and white in 1/6th Oz for me unless it's windy the I go to a 1/8th Oz black and orange would be me 2nd choice
Red /black/chartreuse , black/purple / bright yellow . RED/PURPLE/ CHARTREUSE PRE SPAWN- APRIL 1/8 . hotter(usually means clearer)= smaller
1/8 oz. black/chartreuse OR pank/black. Mostly fish Nader. Course, I grew up using a gold aberdeen with a minnow lip hooked and caught a whole lot of fish.......

Quality jigs ain't cheap. Those on barlows are still 90 cents apiece. I decided to take the plunge and buy everything needed to make what I wanted in jig heads. Several diff molds, melting pot, paints, eyes, epoxys, u name it...for around $500. Not sure how many it's gonna take to re coop that cost but the best jig head u ever put your hands on only cost ya right at 18 cents to make
You probably already know this, but the key is baking the paint right to keep it on the jig. If you don't it chips off really bad.Quote:
