I know from experience that everyone has a favorite "go to" jig color and that color varies greatly. I was curious if a national type study has been done to find out what the highest selling color is across all brands.

That would be interesting to know
My guess is chartreuse or “chartreuse plus something” would be at the top of the list.
That would be my thoughts as wellQuote:

I would think the manufacturers of jigs would certainly know the answer as to what sells the best
I agree but is it a company secret???Quote:

Chartreuse Yellow is probably the most popular. Any ideas as to which type of bait is most popular?
That would be interesting to know alsoQuote:

Monkey milk is an excellent color! I also like threadfin shad!Quote:

I've been selling jigs for years. Day in and day out....more gray ghost pattern goes out the door more than any other color.

About a year ago I was was going to buy some Bobby Garland grubs. I did a survey to find out the top ten. I can’t remember all of the colors but monkey milk was number one. At that time there was twenty something colors that different fisherman suggested. I ended up buying two different styles of each of the top ten.

My best selling color is either monkey juice or monkeytreuse pretty close call......
I don't know, but that Gray Ghost jig has taken it's share, but like many others here I like Chartreuse with some thing like Black or Blue best.
Also know Blue and White has had it's time to shine as well.
For me I have a favorite for each water condition and Chartreuse is in half of them, see pic below for my choice for everything from Muddy to what I call clear.

It is a good and productive color
Chartreuse is number one I can tell you that from the past few years I’ve been selling Baits.
Any color combo is good as long as it has chartreuse in it

Any color works as long as it's black/chartreuse.

Any dark color or bright color with chartreuse but they will bite solid chartreuse just fine . I seldom if ever use anything but purple or orange with chartreuse .:biggrinQuote:
