Are you sure?  I don't remember tying any with a chartreuse body......

The midwest outdoor show got a shot of one with a white body.  However, that jig was wet, and I do use chartreuse thread; maybe the color was coming through?

CJ;; try a legion brean killer as a dropper on a popping bug !!  double the fun !!  sometimes I catch two at a time;;  make the dropper;; 2 feet; behind the popper

WELL FRANK;; REALLY LOOKS LIKE YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING MAKING PLASTIC BAITS BUDDY !!  YOU JUST MIGHT HAVE A FEW OF  THE GUYS HERE ASKING YOU A LOT OF QUESTIONS ON THESE !  ONE QUESTION I HAVE FOR YOU IS;; HOW LONG ARE THEY;; HAVE YOU TRIED A RAINBOW TROUT COLOR PATTERN YET ??
