U know i never had much faith in the wine red color.Its a good rubber trailor on bvlack but the whole jig that color has been a dud for me.
In Montauk lime green head an tail is a popular producer. One thing i pretty much always do is keep it simple.I mix a color to match the color bucktail i have. Like olive green for instance.there seems to be alot of variation when u buy a olive green bucktail.I try to find a brownish green that goes well with my favorite trailor.I like the heads to match the tails for the most part in one color only.Only time i vary in that is to put a little red on the bottom of some black when i wrap my canal jigs.An sometimes a chartruese head an white body is murderous.I like to tro bucktails when the water is big so chartruse gets alot of play in the daytime.At night white on the full moon an dark on a dark moon.It makes a difference.

FORE!
It's usually darkest just before it turns Black..
