Clarity at 1.5 ft is not that dingy to me. Dark colors work well in stained/muddy water. Black/gray and black/orange are good, especially in springtime. But most any color will work in clarity at 1.5 ft. I know this sounds crazy, but yellow and John Deere green work well in muddy water also. If you look at the color chart on the old Color-selector, the two colors that show up well at all depths in stained and muddy water is yellow and green. Hence, chartreuse is a great color all around. Chart/white and chart/black and chart/lime green are about the best all around colors for any water.
Enjoy the addiction and good fish

Here are my favorite spring color combos and I will explain what clear and stained and very stained is to me and color.

First for me on Toledo Bend I use 3' as my clear/stained line, so less than 3' down that I can see my jig is stained and if I can see it 3' down or more, it's clear. Then I have another break like say less than 1 1/2' seeing the jig we are very stained and less than a foot, it's down right muddy!

So as I look at these 1/32 Oz Roadrunners my true favorite is the middle one, Chartreuse/Blue/Chartreuse and the Chartreuse and Black is next. Both or for stained water.
2nd one down is my right after a big rain bait and when the lake is stained pretty good.

The bottom two are for more clear water so when you can see your jig down 3' or more.

Now none of this is hard and it doesn't mean that Blue and White will not work in stained water, because it will, but some colors in some conditions will get more strikes. It's also very funny when the water is right at that clear stained break point, it can make a huge difference if it's cloudy or sun is shinning bright!
