## **Why Chartreuse? The Science Behind the Color**
Chartreuse (a bright yellow-green hue) is one of the most effective colors in fishing, especially in stained or murky water. Its high visibility triggers aggressive strikes from predatory fish. When paired with **flash elements** (like holographic foil or reflective materials), the lure creates an irresistible “wounded baitfish” effect.
### **Key Benefits of Chartreuse Flash Jigs:**
✔ **High Visibility** – Stands out in low-light conditions.
✔ **Flash Attraction** – Mimics the flash of fleeing baitfish.
✔ **Versatility** – Works in both clear and stained water.
✔ **Multi-Species Appeal** – Effective for crappie, bluegill, walleye, bass, and trout.

## **Choosing the Right Jig for Each Species**
### **1. Crappie & Bluegill – Small & Subtle**
Crappie and bluegill prefer slow-moving, small-profile prey. For these species, choose:
– **Size:** 1/32 oz to 1/16 oz
– **Shape:** Round or teardrop head for a natural fall
– **Tail Material:** Marabou or soft silicone for lifelike movement
– **Flash Level:** Moderate (too much flash can spook them)
**KyleBooker Recommendation:** The **KB Micro Flash Jig (1/32 oz)** is perfect for finesse presentations under a float.
### **2. Walleye – Slow & Steady Wins**
Walleye are structure-oriented and prefer a slow, deliberate retrieve. Opt for:
– **Size:** 1/16 oz to 1/8 oz
– **Shape:** Bullet or minnow head for better hydrodynamics
– **Tail Material:** Longer silicone skirts for a larger profile
– **Flash Level:** High (walleye are drawn to flash in deeper water)
**KyleBooker Recommendation:** The **KB Walleye Flash Jig (1/8 oz)** excels in river currents and deep lake structures.
### **3. Bass – Aggressive Strikes Need Action**
Bass are opportunistic and love reaction strikes. Choose:
– **Size:** 1/8 oz to 1/4 oz
– **Shape:** Football or swimming head for better bottom contact
– **Tail Material:** Paddle tails or curly tails for vibration
– **Flash Level:** High (bass are drawn to erratic movements)
**KyleBooker Recommendation:** The **KB Bass Flash Jig (1/4 oz)** is ideal for flipping near cover or slow-rolling in open water.
### **4. Trout – Natural Drift is Key**
Trout prefer a natural drift, especially in streams. Select:
– **Size:** 1/16 oz to 1/8 oz
– **Shape:** Round or cone head for smooth drifting
– **Tail Material:** Sparse marabou or CDC feathers for subtle movement
– **Flash Level:** Low to moderate (trout can be line-shy)
**KyleBooker Recommendation:** The **KB Trout Flash Jig (1/16 oz)** is deadly when paired with a float in moving water.

## **Fishing Techniques for Maximum Success**
### **Float & Fly Method**
– Use a **slip float** to adjust depth easily.
– Cast near structure (brush piles, docks, weed edges).
– Let the jig suspend naturally with slight twitches.
### **Jigging Under a Bobber**
– Ideal for crappie and bluegill.
– Keep the jig just above the fish’s strike zone.
– Use short, subtle lifts to trigger bites.
### **Slow-Rolling for Bass & Walleye**
– Cast beyond structure and retrieve slowly.
– Pause occasionally to let the jig flutter down.
