I mainly fish with live bait but will use a tube from time to time. Probably fish 75% live bait 25% artificial. I have been real successful with a hot pink tube with silver speckles on a black 1/32 oz. jig head on the north fork area around Poppin' Rock. Think I got 'em from Bass Pro Shop. Of course the old stand by chart. works well too. The tubes with silver or gold sparkles seem to work well regardless of color. I've wanted to try to use more artificial for crappie but just seem to gravitate back to minnows when the bite gets slow. Now that the 4th madness is over I need to try to get on the water soon. Five day forecast looks like Thursday would be a good day. Good luck, and maybe I'll see you on the water someday.
