Many would say bright colors like Electric Chicken or Fire Tiger. Fl. Orange, Fl. Pink, Flame Red etc. Also, a belly spin (Road Runner) might draw a thump due to vibration.

Chartreuse, black/chartreuse, white/chartreuse, and plain white are usually pretty good. Pink, orange, yellow, etc are good colors too.

Next question, you guys often refer to some funny named colors(electric chicken lol) are these custom colors from small jig makers because I don't find them at retailers

I would say Slab Bandit - Red Salt & Pepper.

That is one of the colors I have never bought.

Thanks bonz and everyone. I checked out one creek today that I have been scouting for a bit. Still no crappie but did manage a nice catfish that snapped my 4# line. As I was landing it:(
But at least I had a bite. Bobby garland mo glo under bobber.
Electric chicken got it!
