Jig colors?

Post by **Ken K** » May 10th, 2003, 9:25 am

I always use red Cotee jig to rig a grub or SWA. A guide I fished with in Louisiana said you couldn't catch trout out there with a red headed jig.
What colors do ya'll use?

I've been successful from time to time with a red head on a motor oil/fire tail grub. I usually use a white head though. I've been hearing that grubs with some pink have been doing good in the past couple of weeks.

Sharkboy, where did you get those motor oil/ firetail grubs? What brand are they? I am about to run out and can't find anymore.

That's sort of a problem. I am about to run out too and haven't found any more like them. I ran across these in my Dad's old saltwater box about 6 months ago. They have a sold motor oil colored body with a flat orange tail sort of like a Mann's Jelly Worm does. The tail is not real bright orange either, I don't know if it was like that originally or just faded with age. It's a shame, though because the last time I was catching fish on them I couldn't seem to get them to hit anything else!

If anybody else knows where to get these, let us know.

I just got one of the better ones out and looked at it. It is a Mann's Stingray Grub.
