I’ll do my best to keep things simple. A Ball Tail Shad rigged on a 1/8-ounce jighead is great when wading in thigh- to waist-deep water or use a 1/4-ounce when drifting. In thigh-deep or less water, I like to use the Wig-A-Lo, Willow Tail Shad, or Paddle Tail paired with a 3/32-ounce jighead. If it’s windy, I’ll use a 1/8-ounce. As for colors, I’ve listed those I recommend based on water clarity. This doesn’t mean you should go out and buy every color, but choose a couple of natural and dark colors that you’re confident in. Hope this helps!
