TrippyJai Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 What colour trailer would you choose from this link for this jig? Only 1 colour please. http://www.***.com/descpage-NBPCH.html Quote
Super User Sam Posted December 27, 2008 Super User Posted December 27, 2008 What is the forage? Crawfish? If so, what color? Water Clarity? - Clear, stained or dirty? Bottom - Mud, sand, rock? Cover and Structure? - Wood, grass, rock, flat, culverts? Fish Activity? - Active or inactive? Trailer Claw Movement? - Fast (Rage Tail) or slow (Pork and Plastic)? So your simple query as to what color needs to be thought out and amended as you fish the jig. Did we discuss bottom color????? I would go with a Pork Trailer in blue or black for starters, and have a orange and a crawfish color ready to change out. Just food for thought. Quote
Btech Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 I try to match my trailor with whatever color the jig is - Stick with black or black / browns Quote
BassFishingMachine Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 Yeah, I'd use black, or black/brown. Another thing you can try is a all black trailer and dip the very front half inch of the claws into Spike-it chart dye. It would match the chart strands in the jig, and this combo would make a great jig for chocolate milk water clarity. Quote
memo43 Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 3 options 1) black 2)brown 3) see option #1 pretty much what ever color you feel comfortable as well as confident that's what will make it or break it. memo Quote
TrippyJai Posted December 27, 2008 Author Posted December 27, 2008 Black was my first choice. Good stuff, I know it also depend on my conditions, but I wanted to see everyones opinion. Thanks a lot for the help guys. Quote
senko_77 Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 Jig trailer color doesn't make a difference IMO. What I think makes a difference is if the angler throwing it feels confident in it. Get something that looks awesome to you, then cast into a productive spot and work the bait in a way that looks awesome to the fish. Quote
Chris Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 I tend to use a lot of pork so black/blue-stained blue-muddy water black/chart-stained to muddy brown-clear orange-brownish water Quote
Super User Catt Posted December 27, 2008 Super User Posted December 27, 2008 When ever black is required I prefer Black Neon Quote
Super User Munkin Posted December 27, 2008 Super User Posted December 27, 2008 Black or green pumkin are what I use 90% of the time. Allen Quote
Danny1991 Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 Black in dirtier water or Green Pumpkin in clearer water Quote
BARON49_Northern NY Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 I like my trailer to normally be a contrasting color to the bait. A Pumpkin with green flecks, or a chatruse zoom chuck would work well with this jig. Quote
TrippyJai Posted December 28, 2008 Author Posted December 28, 2008 I just wanted to know what everyone's favourite colour is. This jig I think can be very versatile because it's a great all around jig. I can pick and choose a lot of different trailer colors based on the situations. Quote
Supermat Posted December 28, 2008 Posted December 28, 2008 okeechobee craw for sure. Don't ask me why, but it gets eaten. And I use it at the same time that I use jigs with those types of skirts colors. Of course, it is entirely relative but that would be my choice. Quote
TrippyJai Posted December 28, 2008 Author Posted December 28, 2008 okeechobee craw is a great colour. $1.99 so inexpensive, I got them as well. =) Quote
SenkoShawn Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 need to know alot about your fishing hole in order to answer this. Quote
