patrickjohn2014 Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 Hey everyone I'm curious to see if you have had productive fishing on the pattern "jersey killer". I own a few metal lips in it and haven't done much. Want to see others catches and opinion on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wthompson373 Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 Catches lots of fishermen. I don't think it'll be any more productive than white or chartreuse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xjclint Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 Anything bunker color works great. Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after. -Thoreau Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patrickjohn2014 Posted July 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 I'm not asking what the best color is, nine times out of ten I use white. Just I don't think I've ever seen a fish with this pattern hangin out of its mouth. Supposedly there is also a rumor that bluefish won't hit this color. I want to see some pics of fish that fell for jersey killer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrickjohn2014 Posted July 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 My understanding as of now is that lefty made this color first, then skip smith named it. Supposedly it works real well in raritain bay due to the murky water and reduced visability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanStaalSteve Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 (edited) I think chartreuse or flo yellow solid or combined with white is a very productive color combo for bass and blues. It's my #1 choice for metal lip and darters. Edited July 29, 2017 by VanStaalSteve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcjeep14 Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 I will agree with white and yellow, for swimmers and for blues white and red seems productive for me. When the fish are feeding heavy, I think any color will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been in situations where fish were actively feeding wouldn't hit this color but then would hit flat white in same plug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish can be finicky and you have to have confidence in what you are throwing. White is a great all around color as is yellow. I wouldn't give up on chartreuse or flo yellow plugs though as they do work well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yudi Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 chart and flo yellow offer an additional UV color spectrum that we don't see but many fish do and the striped bass is one of them. BI flo green fits this bill as well. It's not natural looking to us, but it does work and at times it is the only thing that works. I think often this works well in stained water. But in general, I use black, white and yellow (pink if squid are prevalent) and that's all a surfman needs, but there's always the exception to the rule and the best surfmen (like Steve) are prepared. With Danny style metal lips I think these bright/flo colors work better then just black or white, but that's something I've observed but not a lure type I have tons of confidence in, so my opinion might be tainted. Steve has a real nice article on metal lips that you can google up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.R. Bridge Fisher Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 I do well with parrot especially on foggy mornings. I would like to try that pattern jersey killer. troll #122 <*)))< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou T Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 Really do not know if it's the color pattern, or the plug, but one night I had a good stiff wind blowing in my face. In my bag was a large Loki Sea Slider in that pattern. Sorry to say I have no photos of the night, but I did do very well. Been using that pattern ever since with confidence....

Lou T Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 (edited) For over a week they would not touch black, take the same plug in florescent yellow white combination (JK) and they inhaled it. That’s a 41/2oz. Beast of a darter, that fish devoured.... Lou T Edited July 31, 2017 by Lou T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
