Just a different flash used, but think it's nice with Krystal Flash, what say you guys? This is 1/8 Oz. Also sorry I have to link my pic and why I don't post more, but once I get my web site done I will use it! http://www.crappie.com/crappie/attachmen...0d667bd4313-jpgSkip

Thanks guys! And a special thanks to JIM Sr. for getting the image posted!
FYI, I have used this color combo forever 38 years now and first started when I was using the little 1/32 Oz Original Marabou Roadrunners and they had this color. The cool part is this tail is the same shade as they used on theirs. I started using that in like 1979 when I first learned to long line troll for crappie. Also back then I hated trolling as it was all about bass and trolling the deep diving baits back then which I never did, but this was different. One day I was throughly frustrated with the wind so I just gave up and tied on a little Roadrunner to just drift fish. To my surprise I started catching big crappie, then it hit me I could do this without the wind by just using my troll motor. That was the start of what I still do today in spring and fall!
Anyway just a little true story about this color combo for me.

Nice tie Skip. Just need a couple blinking lights.
On the old Color-C-Lector, yellow and green are the two colors that are visible in most all water clarity and at depth. A John Deere yellow/green works really well in muddy water.

Thank you guys!
Ken Gaby, I use to have that old color C-Lector, lol! I was using that when the wend made me drift fish and gave me the idea to use my toll motor and what everyone now calls long line trolling!
JIM SR. no I still do not know what you did to show that picture up. Well I am wondering now if all I needed to do is copy location and paste it here and add in their image posting brackets?

Big looks awesome, but with it being a jig you tied there's nothing else expected When I post a pic I just use the pic uploader on this site....
