    Default Jigs and Trailer Help!

    Alright, I am planning on buying a bunch of jigs soon. Any suggestions on which you jigs you like, any colors, specific weights, or trailers? I am going to be fishing Castaic Lagoon or Upper Lake almost all the time, so I need some colors that work well in clear water.

    So far I plan on getting a few Bass Patrol Football Jigs probably in brown and purple and brown and orange.

    And I also plan on getting one or two Skinny Bear Elite Football Head Jigs in a couple different brown combinations.

    Right now I am going to be using them in deep water so I want some football jigs, but in spring I will probably stat fishing docks and shallower water so I am probably going to need a few flipping jigs or will the footballs work too?

    I kind of answered my own questions for the most part, but I need to make sure I am on the right track and any other suggestions will help. Thanks.

    These are what I buy. Check them out. Price is great and so is quality.

    For clear water, I like browns with bits of purple, orange, and red.

    Thanks Kevin. Do they flare up well in the water? The hair adds a nice touch and the price is definitely right. Those are the colors that I was thinking of getting, but I wasn't sure on the brown and red.

    silicone jigs dont flare up as well as rubber but it comes in more colors. they make hybrid jigs that use both so you get the flare of natural rubber but the color of silicone mixed in.

    I'm looking for the rubber jigs and hybrids mainly. I have a couple silicon jigs already.

    Be careful when you buy packaged jigs. Those with rubber bands holding the skirt will disintegrate quickly leaving you with a seperated skirt and jighead.

    Silicone<Rubber<Hair<Fur as far a flare.

    I plan on buying hand tied jigs only so shouldn't have that problem.

    Reaction Innovations Sweet Beaver for the trailer....

    I really like Bass Patrol jigs...they sure know how to make'em. I fish the brown/purple and the green pumpkin with red in it. 1/2oz with a beaver trailer has a deadly drop rate.
