    Default Lure color for tannin water?


    I figured I'd ask this question here, since you guys got a lot of tea colored water or black water. Its in the South Georgia lakes and ponds here also. I was wondering what are your favorite colors to use for crappie in the black water? What do you think shows the best? The water is clear, but at the same time it throws a different look to the jig your using because of the tea color. Any thoughts? Thanks.

    We have a lot of Cyprus stained water here in SE Virginia and charteus or a mixture with charteus in it seems to be a favorite color.
