    A simple selection will do…
    High contrast for murky water…
    Hot Orange, Chartruese, FireTiger

    For clearer water…especially winter/fall
    Silver, Gold, Blue

    Low light…
    Black or Purple (always good)

    For those who like pitching blades, you should try those 1/4oz scrounger jigs with a fluke or a ringworm on it. It gives out a different vibration.I heard that Dean might have some or maybe getting them in. (THE SECRETS OUT)

    pitching,much like jigs,conditions dictate the weights. I very seldom use anything over a 1/4 and most of the time 1/8 or less.In my opinion, the right weight is more important than the color.For colors,sumthin bright,sumthin dark and gold is a great place to start.

    To see them in person it’s less than a 40 minute drive from St Mary’s Point…and less than 20 minutes if my FW’s driving.
