SteveF Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 What is everyone's top 5 favorite jig n pig/plastic colors? 1. Black/Blue 2. Black/Red 3. Watermelon Red 4. Green Pumpkin 5. Green Pumpkin/Blue I have a feeling that most people's will be somewhat similar in the top 1 or 2 spots. Let's here it guys. Steve Quote
smallieking Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 i like green pumblinseed with a crawdad color trailer for most conditions but a junebug jig with matching trailer is sometimes a lethal combination for stained or muddy waters such as the three rivers in Pittsburgh Quote
Super User grimlin Posted January 21, 2008 Super User Posted January 21, 2008 Mine seems to be anything brownish with either a green pumpkin,brown or even black trailer. Honestly,i don't think it matters too much.Every jig and color i have seem to catch aleast something. Quote
MattStrykul Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 Black Blue Browns I try to keep it simple, I mainly throw black/blue, it always works. Quote
santeebasser24 Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 Green Pumpkin/ Pepper is my favorite with a zoom trailer. Quote
Super User Catt Posted January 21, 2008 Super User Posted January 21, 2008 Black-N-Blue, Black Neon-Brown-Amber Seed, & Black Neon Quote
Branuss04 Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 Brown Craw type color Watermelon I like to keep it simple. I have had good luck with a straight brown with a little bit of purple mixed in. Quote
Jake. Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 Black BlueBrowns I try to keep it simple, I mainly throw black/blue, it always works. x2 Quote
TournyFish001 Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 varies depends on the situation- don't have one favorite color. Quote
BassFishingMachine Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 In No Particular order 1. Black/blue 2. Black 3. Watermelonred or Greenpumpkinred (either one works for me) 4. Greenpumpkin 5. Brown, brown/green or any brown/black/green combination. For trailers I use plastic 99% of the time, and I match the color of the trailer to the color of the Jig. Although sometimes I'll make a black/blue color out of a black jig by using a black/blue trailer on a black jig. Or a greenpumpkin trailer on a brown jig etc. Quote
The Next KVD Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 Only use 3 colors: 1. Black/blue 2. Grn. Pumpkin 3. White Quote
Super User Jeff H Posted January 22, 2008 Super User Posted January 22, 2008 Black w/green flake and dark olive green Black and Blue pumpkin w/green flake and black Jet Black Plum camo Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 I have 2 PBJ blk blue those are 99% of my jig fishing Quote
BiggerWorm Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 If I'm fishing deep or stained water I will use black/blue. Otherwise I like to keep with natural colors. Having too many colored baits gives me way too many options, I would drive myself crazy deciding on which one! Quote
Del from philly Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 I had no idea EVERYBODY goes with the Black/blue Thats my color all day....except an occassional white color or cream but mostly black, with some blue is the way to go aorund here! Quote
Pond Hopper Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 Black and blue, pumpkinseed, or one I like the color of but have not tried yet due to a foot of ice is Crigger Craw, one of Karu Lures colors. Quote
Supermat Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 My choices vary but my two of my most common colors are "Curt's Craw" and "Dirt Nap" from Dirtyjigstackle They're both variations of craw colors but I've never seen anything else like them. Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted January 22, 2008 Super User Posted January 22, 2008 Black and Blue Green pumpkin All I ever need. Quote
fathom Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 black/blue. good thing we don't all fish the same lake. Quote
Super User Jeff H Posted January 23, 2008 Super User Posted January 23, 2008 black/blue.good thing we don't all fish the same lake. Yeah, but....on any given lake you can count on 90% of the jigs being thrown to be your favorite color. Black and Blue is big everywhere you go. What I can't figure out about jig color is I always hear brown/orange come up, but I have NEVER been able get a bite on that, and I'm talking 20+ years of never. Every time the fish I do get, blow parts in the livewell there is always orange present yet I can never get 'em with orange involved. Also, can't fish red, gators(Pike) seem to love red and I hate gators. Quote
Super User Tin Posted January 23, 2008 Super User Posted January 23, 2008 Well the theory of color doesnt matter is beginning to grow on me. So I will say the 5 I have the most confidence in. 1.Black 2.Western Melon (Terminator) 3.Black Blue 4.Olive and Copper 5. Black Red Flash Quote
beastieboy Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 1. brown/purple flash 2. pbj 3. green pumpkin 4. black/blue Quote
lsmith500 Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 Karu's Special Brown and Extreme Bluegill are great during the spawn! They match the Bass's #1 enemy and want stay on a bed longer than a second till they're eat! Lee Quote
tfisherman Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 Black Red or black blue I have the pumpkin colors but never do any good with them. I had some white ones one time and would've sworn I'd kill the fish..might of caught one total?? Quote
