    I don't use plastics very often, fish my hand ties 90% of the time for crappie so my plastic list is short. Crappie stingers with chartreuse glow tails and Keitech 2" Easy Shiner are my go to plastics.

    I figure you can catch them on about anything as long as it's a southern pro mini jig in black/chartreuse tipped with a white crappie nibble. I sure would like to have a conversation with whoever splits the tails for Creme. Out of a package of 25 you will have over half just mashed and split at an angle. They suck.

    Crappie bite twice a day. 15 minutes before I get there and 10 minutes after I leave.

    IMHO .... Slab-a-nator plastic bodies are what I consider "the best". Inexpensive, tough, and yet soft enough to provide plenty of action. I've used probably half a dozen different brands of plastics over the years, and right now about 90% of the plastics in my bag are Slabanator brand jig bodies.

    Muddy Waters , Brush pile ,jokers ,Have great colors and last . Also the crappie magnet is my go to short profile jig body . Fle-fly go go minnow is by far the best curly tail if casting but only use on a tough bite . Will out catch any I have ever used but are very soft .

    Gotta say those Crappie Magnets worked best for me last year. Especially the black/chartreuse. Second go to was Berkley Gulp! Alive! minnows in the 1 1/2 and 2 1/2 inch sizes. Black Shad color.

    the fle fly go go minnow is one deadly curly tail , wont last long as it is soft as warm butter , but will flutter at the slightest movement .

    I’m with pappy on this one. Slabanator hot rods are by far the best plastic I have fished. Go to color has to be monkeyshine. You can’t go wrong with a couple bags of those in the boat.

    For myself “Best” means what you gonna tie on when the fishing is tough, your on unfamiliar ground, or nothing is working. Some days or time of year anything works. But when the going gets tough I will always have a Bobby Garland FullMoon baby Shad on a red head jig. That’s what I’m most confident in under any situation.
    Seems everyone these days are selling dreams, I'm just to cheap to buy one!

    Best for me is almost never the same bait in plastics , color seems to be more important than the actual shape or manufacturer in most cases .
