Hi, I'm going to have some marabou salmon jig's tied up for me and I need help with what color's they should be. What are some HOT color's that you guy's like to use for river salmon? Also is 1/4oz jig's the right size for salmon? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank's, Dale (SalmonBuster)

I like 1/4 oz or 3/8 oz, any color as long as it is pink/cerise. That is for cohos, and I guess chums. Pink head, blue collar, cerise body. That one is my standby.

Thank's guy's! I'm going to try those. I'm also thinking some chartreuse and salmon egg color jig's. What do you think? Dale (SalmonBuster)

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

1/4-3/8 oz
I like the colors mentioned above, and would recommend a chartreuse body, orange head pattern as well.
Use them with and without the float.

First bit jigs sells a line of premium jigs with extra stout hooks Ya, What he said. Almost any shade of pink or red will do the trick as will chartruse and green, but you absolutely can't go skimpy on the hooks. You'll be a very angry jig fishermen if you do. KO
