- GP 1 Summary:
- The Dark Natural Pick
- GP 1 Details:
- Flex Cast Jig • 5/16 oz • Grape Ape • Silicone Skirt • No Rattles • Gamakatsu Hook • Hand Wire-Tied Skirt • Double Wire Keeper
- GP 1 Why:
- Grape Ape gives this jig a semi-dark natural profile that works well in stained water, with colors that can suggest either bluegill and sunfish or crawfish depending on the forage present.
- GP 1 How:
- Pitch it around wood, grass, docks and mixed cover, or drag and hop it across open-water targets. The lighter 5/16 oz weight gives it a controlled fall while the Flex Cast design helps it move through cover.
- GP 1 When:
- Choose this when you want a darker natural jig for stained water without going all the way to black. It is a strong option when bass may be feeding on bluegill, sunfish or crawfish.

- GP 2 Summary:
- The Bright Crawfish Pick
- GP 2 Details:
- Flex Cast Jig • 5/16 oz • Glory Craw • Silicone Skirt • No Rattles • Gamakatsu Hook • Hand Wire-Tied Skirt • Double Wire Keeper
- GP 2 Why:
- Glory Craw gives this jig a brighter crawfish profile that stands out well in stained water, making it easier for bass to locate while still keeping a natural forage look.
- GP 2 How:
- Pitch it around wood, grass, docks and other cover, or drag and hop it along rock, clay and other crawfish-rich bottom. Let the lighter 5/16 oz weight give the bait a controlled fall.
- GP 2 When:
- Choose this when crawfish are an important forage source and you want a brighter stained-water jig that shows up better than a more subtle natural color.
- GP 3 Badge:
- Expert Pick #3
- GP 3 Summary:
- The Softer Black-and-Blue Pick
- GP 3 Details:
- Flex Cast Jig • 5/16 oz • Black Sapphire • Silicone Skirt • No Rattles • Gamakatsu Hook • Hand Wire-Tied Skirt • Double Wire Keeper
- GP 3 Why:
- Black Sapphire gives you the contrast of black and blue in a softer, less aggressive color. It stands out well in stained water while still resembling either bluegill and sunfish or crawfish.
- GP 3 How:
- Pitch it around wood, grass, docks and mixed cover, or drag and hop it through open-water targets. The 5/16 oz weight gives it a controlled fall while the Flex Cast design helps it move through cover.
- GP 3 When:
- Choose this when you want the visibility of a black-and-blue style jig but with a more subdued profile. It is especially useful when bass are feeding on bluegill, sunfish or darker crawfish.

- Expert Pick #4
- GP 4 Summary:

- GP 4 Details:
- Perfect Swimmer Swim Jig • 1/4 oz • Black Light • Silicone Skirt • No Rattles • Gamakatsu Hook
- GP 4 Why:
- Black Light gives this swim jig strong contrast in stained water, helping bass track the bait while keeping a compact moving profile. It is a straightforward stained-water color that consistently gets bites.
- GP 4 How:
- Swim it around grass, docks, wood and other shallow cover with your preferred trailer. Keep it moving steadily and vary speed or direction when you want to trigger a reaction.
- GP 4 When:
- Choose this when you want a moving jig presentation with strong contrast in stained water, especially around shallow cover where bass are willing to chase.
- GP 5 Badge:
- Expert Pick #5
- GP 5 Summary:
- The High-Visibility Flipping Pick
- GP 5 Details:
- Seeker Head Flipping Jig • 1/2 oz • TM'S Revenge • No Rattles • Gamakatsu Hook
- GP 5 Why:
- TM'S Revenge uses a unique color pattern that stands out especially well in stained water, giving bass a more visible target while still keeping the profile in a natural jig presentation.
- GP 5 How:
- Pitch and flip it around wood, docks, grass, brush and other target-oriented cover. Let the 1/2 oz head get down quickly, then work it with short hops, drags and pauses around each target.
- GP 5 When:
- Choose this when stained water calls for a more visible flipping jig, especially around heavier cover where you want the bait to stand out without moving to an extreme color.
- GP 6 Badge:
- Expert Pick #6
- GP 5 Summary:
- The Deep-Water Crawfish Pick
- GP 6 Details:
- Wow Factor Jig • 3/4 oz • Black Brown • Football Head • No Rattles • Gamakatsu Hook
- GP 6 Why:
- Black Brown gives this football jig enough contrast to remain visible in stained water while still looking natural enough to represent a crawfish. The 3/4 oz football head is well suited for deeper bottom fishing.
- GP 6 How:
- Drag it along deeper points, rock, gravel, ledges and other open-water bottom structure. Maintain bottom contact and use slow drags, short hops and pauses to imitate a crawfish moving along the bottom.
- GP 6 When:
- Choose this when bass are holding deeper in stained water and you want a bottom-contact jig with enough contrast to be found while still maintaining a believable crawfish profile.
