ORANGE?

Do many of you have luck with straight orange plastics for crappie? I love cajun cricket but that is about as orange as i typically get.

Put a smackdown on the crappie and bluegills the last 3 days on my orange wiggly worms on 1/64 tungsten heads. First time ever having such good luck on bright orange, i put it on to try and locate some panfish figuring id change out colors once i got a few bluegill taps but never had to change!

They were everywhere, from up under docks to bottom hugging 15' of water.Attachment 465712Attachment 465717Attachment 465715Attachment 465716Attachment 465714Attachment 465713

Man, pretty much anything orange, green, or silvery gray will catch em. I also like purples & blacks.

I pour orange baits all the time. I also like tying my jigs with orange material. It is one of my favorite colors to use.

Yup orange is an awesome color. I think that’s Ketchn from Texas favorite!!!

Great cooler full

I think Ketchn will chime in on thei one!!

orange can really be effective , most of the time mine has some chart with it , but straight up orange can be killer as well .
black crappie in particular seem to be very fond of it in some of the locations i visit :highfive
congrats and KABOOM

Thank you! Its adapted from the trout world but man does it catch panfish! I was honestly amazed that it worked on crappies in 80deg water in july but it sure did. I did catch a small handful on chartreuse, but they didn't seem to eat it as well as the orange for some reason.

never tried anything quite like that myself , might be a good idea to look outside the box soon , what is the material used to make that there artificial red wiggler if i may ask ?

Awesome job Kevin22. Some good catches

Woowee! What a mess of fish! Thanks for sharing

Colors more to catch fishermen than fish. I sometimes use a big 2.5'' tube in orange/chartreuse on 1/4 jig head when it's muddy or fish are deep.

I get there in orange. I usually do really well with bluegill on orange/green.
