So haven't lost many of my jigs lately and have been stocking up as well as slaying fish.  I found my biggest trouble when starting out with jigs was choosing color so I decided to post a pic of what I'm working with and what's been consistent through my experience.  I do want to warn you that the majority of the baitfish in my area are Bluegill, Crappie. Shiners, and some shad, so my collection obviously reflects that.  Majority are Dirty Jigs, but added my Chatterbaits (including the strike king with the best skirt available of all skirts), and some mixture of different style headed jigs given to me by the Legend himself.  I'd prolly add a few more white/chart mixes, but those two new swimjigs (middle row, bottom two) are looking RIGHTTTT 

Hopefully this helps some of you just starting out that have just begun to realize the potential of the jig in deciding how to choose through the thousands of colors available.  I love mixing in purples/oranges/blues in with the main colors (pumpkin, watermelon, black, white).  Always seem to outdo the others!

Next order i get im defiatly getting a couple more baby bass color dirty jigs swim jigs, them things are my favorite jig by far of any other! 

very nice

My all time favorite jig color is green pumpkin, possibly with some red flash in it. Its the best in my opinion.

very nice

Nice Mike When the Spring comes you will have all that you need by then A few more Dirty Jigs in Bluegill and Shad and you will be ready to rock and roll. (along with the Alabama rig you will get to throw at noxontown and the Upper Bay.) lol You will love it. A fish catching Brick!! lol 

I hear people saying bluegill color but i dont see it on tacklewarehouse, is it the Bayou Bluegill in the Dirty Jigs California Swim Jig? I'm bout to do an order so I want to get the right colors  

Newark, how do the strike king bladed jigs compare to the Zman baits? I've always liked the strike king skirts but can't find any of the SK chatterbaits locally ( just lots of Zman baits on clearance for $ .99 )
