Diamond jigs are my 2nd favorite jigs for perch and crappie. (My favorites are Fiskas Wolfram (Tungsten) jigs).  I like the hot pink color for perch.  I tip them with either a duppy or a powerbait spike, wacky rigged...deadly.  The other guys choices are great too.  My favorite Jammin Jig is the Neon Glow Ant.  It's great for a vertical presentation.  As for the Pills, I just picked some up myself, but haven't tried them yet.  I'm sure they'll work just fine!!!

Gill Getter (Northland), Gill Pills + Diamond Jigs (Custom Jigs + Spins) are some of my favorite jigs.  I also recommend the Fiskas tungsten jigs as well.  The smaller the better for me ... mostly size 14-12 (3-4mm for fiskas) since I fish 5-14 fow 90% of the time.

One other thing- the hooks break easily on the diamond jigs, gill pills, gill getters, and even the tungsten jigs, so use caution when removing hooks from the fish, but I've found all small jigs have sharp but fragile hooks.   The Fiskas jigs seem less likely to rust though as I believe they are coated in silver.  Wish someone made small panfish jigs with Owner hooks, but none that I'm aware of, most are Mustad or Eagle Claw hooks.
