Chad Powell Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 What color jigs or trailers match the colors of tilapia Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted November 21, 2011 Super User Posted November 21, 2011 I only know about Florida I think we have 2 varieties, spotted and blue, they don't really look the same. Crappie jigs are good bait for blues, peacocks and mayans love those little jigs too. I never caught a spotted. Quote
Chad Powell Posted November 23, 2011 Author Posted November 23, 2011 What colors imitate tilapia in Texas. Quote
Big-O Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 Oldham Lures and JoBaby Lures both have Tilapia colors that I like and photos attached. On both of these jigs, I like the "NEW" Rage Tail Blue Craw or Hard Candy color as trailers. On the JoBaby jig, I also like the Big Tex color. I'm not by myself on the color choices... Both company owners choose these as their favorites as well. They both make heavier than 1oz jigs for fishing deeper waters... but their Tilapia colors come in all sizes! Hope that helps Big O www.ragetail.com Oldham JoBaby jig with a Rage Lobster in Big Tex color Quote

Big-O Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Here are the new Blue Craw and Hard Candy colors for the Rage Craws that have been popular for trailing the Tilapia colored jigs... Big O www.ragetail.com Hard Candy Craw Blue Craw Quote
River Rat316 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 That blue craw will be a winner behind alot of jigs! Quote
NateFollmer Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Big O hit it! I have some 'tilapia' stick baits and they are identical in color to big O's craw color. Smallies love that color (kind of resembles a stone cat). Quote
Big-O Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Last time I ckd, Basspro.com had them in stock... Big O www.ragetail.com Quote
BasskingKeith Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Wow! I am really digging those Rage Craw colors. Thanks for posting that "Big O", as there's a lot of tilapia down here, and they have to be part of a bass' diet on such lakes. Very nice... Quote
Bass Junkie Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Good lookin' jigs right there! I love how well the trailer and jig mesh. Beautiful! Quote
