Those jigs are awesome! Especially like the sparkly cactus chenille. Where (Body of water wise) do you throw those bad boys?
-Thanks. That chenille is awesome, puts off some serious flash. I get it at Bass Pro. I loved to use these jigs when the crappies have moved shallow and are holding to shoreline structure. Put them about three feet below a fixed weighted bobber and work the shoreline. MONEY!
Towards the end of February hopefully it will be warming up a bit and I can take a cruise down to the big lake. My best color combo for KY Lake in spring is red body/chartreuse tail. What color combo do YOU guys think is most effective for late winter early spring crappie?
-
Red w/chartreuse tail is a good color combo. I have always had the most luck on KY Lake in early spring using tri-color tubes in any combination of white, yellow (or chartreuse), and orange. IMO.
Can't wait to get into some slabs! If you don't mind me asking, how much jig head do you think a six weight can handle, throwing six weight sink-tip line? Would weight forward floating line handle it the same? Thanks, keep posting your cool patterns Rich! Fly fishing is awesome!
