Lighter colors for clearer water. Darker colors for darker/muddy water. For muddy water, I like blacks,copper,orange, browns, reds, blues, greens. And to hedge my bet I like to have some chartreuse on it..

Some of my best successful jigs for muddy are:
(not in any particular order) "The Candy Corn", "The Black Mamba", "The Texomorange", "The Spawnie" (you can view these color combos for your reference) CLICK

One of my best all time night jig is"The Goto"

Hope it helps...

I had great luck with the Spawnie yesterday at Roberts. Right up to the point when I lost the last one in the mouth on a nice female. Just ordered 10 more. Pink/black/pink was next. Great jigs.
