what color rage tail for a brown jig 2024
OroBass reply :
As the title describes, what color rage tail works well with a predominate brown jig.
A-Jay reply :
Nothing works all the time and there are no real rules as far as trailer colors go -
That said, I've had success with Green Pumpkin, Black & Blue as well as anything that has the word "Candy" as part of the description.

RyneB reply :
Alabama craw, green pumpkin, PB&J, and falcon craw are my most successful on brown jigs
senile1 reply :
I agree with A-Jay that there are no rules for colors. I typically use a color that matches the jig head and skirt. The Dirty Craw and Amber Green colors have worked well for me. I've also had luck with Alabama Craw and to a lesser degree, the Falcon Lake color.
roadwarrior reply :
Your favorite color will work just fine. Mine would be Falcon and PBJ.
scaleface reply :
I've had a lot of luck with black trailer on brown jigs and vice versa .
ABW reply :
You better buy one of each color to make sure you're covered.... just kidding. I like Blue Craw.
Mike L reply :
More often than not I'll use a green pumpkin with chartreuse dyed tails.

That's how I would start. Start by using your favorite color trailer, and then go from there. Experiment with different contrast and see what seems to get bit more often on that particular day.
Senko lover reply :
Any shade of jig that's not on a extreme side of the color spectrum (black/blue or white) gets a Green Pumpkin trailer in my book. I like to keep it simple with jig colors.
Cmiller reply :
I tend to reach for watermelon red flake or green pumpkin on brown and green colors of jigs.

I was going to suggest these exact three but it appears RyneB has it covered already. Never tried the Falcon so I can't speak on that.
Bankbeater reply :
What colors are the crawfish in your area? With a brown jig, I would use greens, browns, and oranges first. If those colors don't work I would start trying blues, or blacks.
Catt reply :

boostr reply :
Green Pumpkin, PBJ, Black/Blue flake, Watermelon

bowhunter63 reply :
Really liking that new road kill color and Bama craw.
looking4structure reply :
My favorite is blue craw and green pumpkin but there's so many great ones to choose from. Alabama craw and candy craw are my second favorite.
I've only used Rage chunks and Paca chunks as a trailer. Seing what Catt posted im going to have to try the bugs.

Oro, in your nick of the woods brown/blue works good.

Black and blue.
OroBass reply :
so some of you guys use a black and blue trailer on a brown jig? Interesting.
Smokinal reply :
PBJ or Bama Craw
OroBass reply :
is the bama craw the most "brown" match that rage tail offers. I think that is what I am trying to figure out.

Absolutely, it really makes the claws stand out on a brown bottom.
Smokinal reply :
Bama is more of a green pumpkin/orange. PBJ is probably the most brown. PBJ just flat out catches fish.
herruberraschen reply :
They have a "Dirty Craw" color that is brown with green flakes. But don't be afraid to throw contrasting colors or slightly different colors.
OroBass reply :
Thanks I fish jigs alot and have a ton of confidence in them. I am just trying to find out which rage craw is brown. Ive ordered them several times and the pics never quite match.

The Green Pumpkin (and some of the variations) are about as close to a brown color as any of them.
GP is also a Very Effective color in many different situations.

That is how I play it if I am searching as to where to start. Works quite well actually.
JDJ reply :
For a nice mix of green with brown color, you might take a look at Bama Craw. Like Green Pumpkin, it's a very versatile color and matches well with brown and green jig skirts.
boostr reply :
Maybe Falcon Lake, the red and green pumpkin mix gives it brown color.
Fishing Rhino reply :
Green Pumpkin with purple and gold flakes. Watermelon with black and red flakes had been my favorite color, and it still is for senkos. But for the rage tail products I prefer the green pumpkin with purple and gold flakes. I do keep a few packs of watermelon w/blk and red, but for the most part I stick to the green pumpkin with purple and gold flakes.
