[black][size 3]I was using several different colors during the course of the day - white salt and pepper, cream spotted, pearl, irredescent blue speckled, clear and black, and irredescent rainbow. My jig weights were 1/4 and 3/8 oz. [/size][/black]

[black][size 3]I have used motor oil colored tubes in the past, but have only had limited success with them. And, that is generally earlier in the year when the fish first start heading for the shallows, and the water is not as clear as it is in the late fall. That color tube seems to work better for me when it has some kind of bright colored speckles. I also tend to have better success using green, olive, or pumkinseed with colored speckles. There are also times when chartruese works well.[/size][/black]

[size 3]Usually I try to have a variety with me and so I can change up if one particular color is not producing.[/size]

[size 3]Here's a sample of what I have in my Strawberry box.[/size]
