I actually use a jig that is yellow on the top and orange twards the bottom of it. Seems to be my most productive jig so far, although it is the one I usually try first. Crappies, bluegill, and perch with it.

Crazy how people have different colors of jigs. We go to this one place ice fishing and anything blue the fish like. One time we went and proved that this is thew color they want after throwing everything at them, always came back to blue of any jig type colors work. Maybe it resembles something thats living on their home turf

Orange. Purples also...

I like orange as well, followed by chartreuse and gold. Of course like most fishermen I have every color ever made in my sled.

I like red to go with red hooks.

Gold, red or black. Depends on the lake and amount of sun

Yellow, green, and orange...I usually do good for gills on "clown" or "frog" colored jigs.

Iceassin · « **Reply #11 on:** Sep 10, 2011, 07:16 PM »

These...but the orange/chartreuse is a no- fail for me (minus the blade)

The past two years glow red has been the ticket, but still have a good handfull of other colors in the box just in case.

chartreuse flutter bug is my go to for any panfish. once it clears the ice everything and it's mother hits it.

topher7694 · « **Reply #14 on:** Sep 10, 2011, 09:53 PM »

chartreuse or purple

chartreuse and orange glitter jigs worked great for me last year. Can't wait until this year. Nothing like some winter gills.

Believe it or not the Pink jigs in my tackle box are the most productive for me. It aint very manly but if there is fish enough for dinner I do not care.

Diamond jig Glow red and Glow white

icejunky · « **Reply #23 on:** Nov 02, 2011, 09:21 PM »

hmm, i like to use a white bodied jig or a pink bodied jig.

ryno · « **Reply #24 on:** Nov 04, 2011, 04:23 AM »

I like black/yellow/green. However last year i got on a pond that was loaded with snails and lil brownish green bugs so i custom painted some marmooska's several variations of brown and they were HOT...match the hatch. Granted when the bite was on...brighter colors shined but during the mid day slump those lil brown marmooska's with little atom micro nuggies out produced any other combo i could come up with. also during the evening bite black until the sun set than glow red for the next 30 minutes....

Diamond jig in red glow.

CZMark · « **Reply #26 on:** Nov 06, 2011, 07:14 AM »

I usually fish multicolor jigs, almost always with some orange. Since I usually jig slightly above the fish, the color on the bottom of the jig seems most important.

acrawfor · « **Reply #27 on:** Nov 06, 2011, 01:11 PM »

Anything purple and white worked good for me last year

Iceman421 · « **Reply #28 on:** Nov 07, 2011, 05:58 PM »

Chartreuse and orange seem to work the best where I fish

cbtrtbum · « **Reply #29 on:** Nov 14, 2011, 08:15 AM »

Even though I do mix it up trying different colors, some version of chartreuse or orange seem to consistently work the best for me. Cant wait for the ice!
