    Those sound like some good color combos Skip. One of my better selling jigs is also a silver/ Blue/ white combination, and I have a couple of guys that only use that particular jig! It seems only logical that crappie in general would like the same snack, no matter where they are swimming!

    I think the perfect jig is one that really works on that day. If one has the right color they will hook the crappie in the back of their mouth and not so much in the lips where it's easy to tare out.

    I agree Skip!!

    Some of them look nice, and some of them look like they've been tied poorly. Pretty much any jig will catch fish in my opinion.

    The grey ghost is a good color combination, but there are many days that other colors will out produce it. That being said, I don't know if there is a single "Perfect Jig". I've caught fish on a certain jig color one day and the next day, you can't buy a fish on the exact jig. A change in color combinations and the fish bite again.
    Just sayin'

    I don't know about the ones with angled heads, but the minnow head jigs on that page are identical to the ones Cabela's sells 5 for $2.99. They come in an assortment of colors, and I have seen all of those colors in the packages at the Boise Cabela's.

    I have caught a lot of trout and crappie on them, especially the white and pink/white. Now that I am tying my own, I just make them myself.
    Don't worry, catch crappie.
