    OK I have some of that new chenille from the other post pics in white. Now I love blue body and white tail or chartreuse tail, but what is your favorite tail color with white body other than white which I know all white is a good color too.

    Interesting I don't think I have ever tried red or green with a white body, but I guess that I will have to try that.

    Just red or FL Red?

    Thanks,

    Hey Skip, when I had my jig business there was one color that I did really well on but it was time consuming. I made the tail 2 different colors like red/white or black/char.

    I have made some two color tails before, but this year I actually fished with some and did very well with a white/Red Thread Neck/With Black & Fl Yellow Hackle tail.

    Maybe I should try a two color tail for this one too.

    Thanks,

    I always make my own personal jigs with a two tone marabou tail color. Gives those finicky crOPPies something to attract them better than a one color tail.

    Skip, with a white chenille body, I would propably wrap some yellow hackle around the body over a yellow and chartreuse marabou tail...........or I would do a Chartreuse and Pink Electricity tail and wrap the white chenille body with pink "candy Striping"
