How do I catch yellow perch on a crappie jig?
I am fishing in the summer and i heard crappie jigs will catch them, can you tell me the best weight to use? Also what color is best? Any additional info would be helpful.

- Using a jig, go with the smallest weight the the water depth and current will allow. It's also helpful to use Berkly Nuggets on the hook, just pin them on. They give off a scent. Also, if the water is fairly clear and the day is sunny go with dark colors, purples and blacks. If it's an overcast day go with light colors, pinks and whites.
- Don't know where you're getting your info, but crappie jigs are not noted to be a highly successful perch lure. You'll do a lot better on perch with minnows drifted under a bobber.
