I have been targeting smallies for awhile now in some local creeks and have had some decent success, of course most guys can catch a fish in a stream that is 15 ft wide.... I have been thinking about trying out some plastics for larger smallmouth and have read some articles about pig and jigs and how they are go to bait for some guys. Armed with this knowledge I head out to the local sporting goods store and find that there are tons of colors and sizes to choose from, so many that I sorta just gave up and went home empty handed to do some more research. I would like to catch some largemouth too, it just happens that I spend more time on the creeks after smallies. So I guess the million dollar questions for the pros on here are...

1. What are your top 2 colors?
2. What oz size should I get?
3. Trailers? Just something in crawdad?

thanks in advance
Bill
