Have y'all had any luck using this color as a jig trailer? I've tried it on black and blue jigs but always seem to go back to black and blue flake.

No, it does not work.  As a matter of fact, send me all of yours and I will dispose of them for you! :eyebrows: :eyebrows: :laugh5:

I use 2 trailers in sapphire blue color.  One is the rage craw and the other is the zoom chunk.  I use them on back of the 00 Modbug jig. (00 mod gen 1 from Siebert outdoors)

 

I fish a lot of oxbows and runoffs that tend to get dirty, but at the same time have caught them on it at Pickwick.  Really is a versatile color.  Give it a try!

Gotta enjoy reading the terms given to old colors. Sapphire blue is what we call neon blue for about 35 years! Zank or John Viazonko is a local team tournament western bass pro who invented adding "neon" coloration to soft plastics. John "Zank" Viazonko dominated WON bass team tournaments for years and should be created for his neon soft plastics.

For some reason it works on the Potomac river when jig fishing.

 

Great with a black/blue jig to give it some color contrast.

 

Keep fishing with it and keep notes on when and where it works or does not produce bites.

Blue Sapphire is a great color for me in the river, especially when it's running high and muddy.

One of the best colors there is for night fishing. I to have the matching blue jig and trailer for night fishing.

I thought about this, but you can't take notes on catching fish when you can't catch fish.

I think that it might be the best time to take notes.What were the water conditions,temp,time of year,etc.I have learned more from the days I tanked than the days you might slay them. It might not be the color of a jig trailer but where they might be holding,what forage their on lots of variables.Dont give up on that color just yet.

Thanks, sorry I couldn't check this earlier but we didn't have any internet.

That color works very well around here when it's cloudy out, or when the water is stained.
