					Crappie guys I?ve a question
				
				
						
							
							
						
						
				
					
						
							Not wanting to pry into everyone?s secret cabinet, but I have question. What are your ?go to? colors on your jigs? I?ve been catching some, but it seems I?m missing something a bit. Get a lot of bumps and no takers at times. I?m not s spider rigger, so just a one poler mostly. Our best color has been pink and black. Caught some on chartreuse and black, and a few on electric chicken. Water is pretty clean. Fishing fairly deep water. 9-13?.  Any suggestions?

							I’m not qualified to answer this question at all but I’ve always had good luck on red/chart tube bait on a jig. I really only fish it in spring when when are shallow under a cork

							I'm not qualified either, but I've done well using Bobby Garland orange and chartreuse at the Rez.
I also try to make sure I present the jig horizontally by moving the knot.

							Checking the knot, and getting that jig to fall flat, is probably the a one most important tip for jig fishing crappie.

 Well stated. Just slide the knot around the eye of the jig so it lays flat.
