Jig color...which school of thought are you in???
I, like every crappie fisherman, have always been very interested in choosing the right color jig for the situation at hand. There are obviously many factors that go into choosing which color you should go with (forage available, size of forage, season/weather, etc...), but there seem to be two completely different general rules to go by. Theory 1) Use bright colored jigs in bright water, and dark colored jigs in dark water, or Theory 2) Use darker or more natural colors in clear water, and brighter colors in darker water. I'm wondering which way everyone leans on this. Below is a link to an article I came across on the subject.

Jig color...which school of thought are you in???
I’m with trypman, black/chartreuse is always in my starting lineup ( I love to spider rig ) my second favorite is electric chicken. Pumpkin/chartreuse works well for me also. The water I fish in the delta is usually stained and often muddy. That said I believe when the fish are in the mood to feed the color is not a big deal you just have to locate them. But I am far from an expert and pretty much a novice [emoji16]. Although I have fished all my life, commercial and recreational, I just started catching white perch/ crappie/ sac au lait the last 5 years or so when I moved away from the coast. Boy Howdy it is a blast [emoji123]
