Go-to paddle tail colors for dingy water?
What are your confidence paddle tail colors when water visibility is 1-2 ft?

#26 Blue Fever in 5" on a 1/2oz. head. The top-line is actually darker than it appears in this pic - and the belly is a hologram of different pink hues to clear ... with very sparkely glitter.

You know, we always called each other goodfellas. Like, you'd say to somebody: "You're gonna like this guy; he's all right. He's a goodfella. He's one of us." You understand? We were goodfellas, wiseguys.

sexy shad, chart. shad, Black Dog Shad what ever you wanna call a white bait with a gray or gray.green back and chartreuse stripe and a black dot just aft of the gill plate. Or Ayu works pretty good.

Bar none, Big Hammer's 138 Special! Big white pearl body with a bright Chartruese tail! While out yesterday on the River in the rain, I rotated between this bait and a 1 oz Yamamoto white/Chartruese blade. Both caught an equal number of fish through out the day, the one difference yesterday, best 5 on the blades was about 12 pounds, on the swimbait, best 5 was about 21 pounds!

Don't put those big hammers on the back of a jig either, that increased profile sure doesn't help in the muddy stuff.
