Lived in Mukwonago, WI for ~6 years and chased crappie all over Wisconsin from Delavan to 'Bago to Onalaska to Madison etc.....one consistent theme in clear (to me) Wisconsin waters is not color of the plastic, but size.

Think smaller, natural colored baits vs. big (2") and bright (chartreuse).

Exceptions could be made on the Mississippi backwaters where there's some stain to it but even then, I never felt confident with larger bait profiles like I did/do in Southern Illinois, Missouri, Texas, Louisiana and now North Carolina.

Just something to think about.
