P B and J jigs?

[Jig Man]

I have everything I need to make them, even can make laminated twin tail grubs.  I haven’t tried them yet because I rarely have much success with PJ and J shaky worms or Neds.  I don’t want to waste time making and fishing something that doesn’t work.

 

Do any of you guys have good luck with them?

My #1 color with a matching Rage Tail Craw.

Really come to like PB&J soft plastics. Probably would fall in my top 3 color list; top 5 for sure. Have had some success with PB&J jigs, too, though I don’t throw them as much. Definitely worth a try in my opinion.

PBJ is a great color to have. I usually always have a PBJ jig tied on.

[Bankbeater]

I catch more with watermelon or black/blue jigs. I would rate my pb&j success right up there with straight brown, it's non-existent.

[LonnieP]

PB&J is my most productive colored jig. Most of the time I have a Green Pumpkin Rage Craw on it.

[PBBrandon]

It’s usually black and blue or green pumpkin for me, but when I do throw PB and J it usually works pretty well

[LrgmouthShad]

I mean, you should do it if you want to, but for me, never had much luck on PB J. It was a little better in MO. I dunno why. Just one of those things.

I like PBJ….. the fish …..about half the time for me

[Pat Brown]

In the late fall and early winter it's the only color I have tied on when I'm flipping and then again in the early spring.  Dead ringer for juvenile bluegill IMHO.

[GetFishorDieTryin]

I catch fish on PBJ, but its not a big confidence color for me when it comes to jigs.  I guess it depends on whose PBJ it is as they all are a little different.  I like the PBJs that are more of a dark brown with purple instead of the black barred amber with purple.

I really think it's more of a favorite, or often used color in the southern, south central states (MO, KS, TN, OK). I know it's used just about everywhere, but it seems to be the green pumpkin of the northern midwest.

pb&j is a good switch up to black and blue in muddy water 

[Siebert Outdoors]

It’s a great color for trock and LOZ imo

[Jig Man]

Thanks.  It is only 75° in the garage and the lead furnace is on so I’m going to pour up heads and can make some extra for pb&j.

[Munkin]

Around here it isn't a good color from my experience. It was my #1 jig color when I spent 17 weeks in MO for the Army. What I found is the crayfish there were brown with a purple hue to them.

Now they are brown green and orange.  That is more what I have been making.  I’ve been catching a few on purples. I just haven’t added any brown because they won’t touch my brown jigs right now.

[Darth-Baiter]

all my jigs are green pumpkin.  well most of them.  i just make them PBJ with the addition of a purple trailer.  or red trailer, or blackblue trailer.  

[Bluebasser86]

I don't like PB&J plastics either, but I do well with a PB&J jig, no idea why. 

[Jig Man]

I’m not sure that I like these enough to tie one on.

Way back in the early 70’s I made up a tri color hair jig to match the color pork trailers using at the time. I did this so changing trailers colors didn’t require tying on a different jig...lazy I guess.

The pork was a more Stren box violet purple in lieu of the darker grape purple. The brown was called barn red a reddish brown and black. 

The back of the jig I used black hair, center was the purple and belly the brown. Close what is now called PB &J.

I fished this tri color jig all over the country and Mexico catching big bass everywhere. So I named the tri color jig “Anytime Anywhere” Back in the late 70’s. 

I still use this jig today 50 years, it’s my all time favorite.
