What are some of your favorite colors for trout? I poured up 25 1/4 oz hot lips head on 2/0 Gamakatsu heavy wire hooks for trout and flounder mostly.

They'll be bucktail jigs, some pictures can be found in my how to tie bucktails thread. http://www.pierandsurf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=51526

Gonna powder paint the heads and tie them up then give 'em a shot here soon I think. Would love color suggestions.

We usually use a white 1/4oz bucktail with a purple worm with a pink or ornage fire tail. Pink and Chartreuse work well to.

Darker colors on occasion produce, especially on overcast days. Dark with silver. If you are selling them provide a spectrum for all purposes in a pack...just my .02

Thanks guys.

Saltandsand, these are for me but I am buying 1000 hooks that I'll start pouring up to sell...

JL Rotary, red head/white body is a great combo. I love it in bucktails, I think I'll make a few of those up.
