Also I found some glow in the dark powder in my cabinet. Would that be appropriate for any crappie baits?

I will probably use a chartreuse head but it doesn’t seem to matter if the fish are heating. I prefer to use natural Colors when we are fishing for bass or Crappie. Black and chartreuse was always a good color combination to use a lot of guys would want to use orange and Chartreuse chartreuse is good with any color combination but again I prefer to use natural I like watermelon Baby Bass green pumpkin and I use a lot of silver and white laminate we use a lot of white on the trail with different body colors.

I'm with Bob. Chartreuse or green pumpkin.

I’ve never heard of green pumpkin for crappie but I am a noobie. I’ll have to pour some up and try them.

plain head works better for me 95 percent of the time.

Those are good looking baits

Nice baits!

Thanks. I’ve never tried that combination for crappie. Blue and chartreuse worked in the past but I don’t have nonbleed chartreuse so they turned green. If this wind dies down I plan to try them out tomorrow or Saturday.
