I use the 1.5" and catch crappie like the is no tomorrow. I think the baby trout color is just the bomb here even on slow days it is my go to jig but they have alot of good colors. I use a 1/16 jig head. I also like the new green pumpkin and gold flake it has worked good too in the last 2 weeks. In your area I would drop it to the bottom and then real up a couple of rounds of your reel let it set a few seconds then move your rod tip over a foot or so and watch your line as it swings if you see it twitch set the hook or just twitch it back pretty hard just to check and see if it was a fish. If you don't get a hit move it around slowly left and right a few more times if that don't work reel up 2 more rounds and do the above all over again. When you catch one go back to that depth or rounds off the bottom you should catch a few more. Good luck and tight lines.
