[#0000FF]As I mentioned, a lot of walleyes are caught on the lures being fished for smallies. They include cranks in crawdad and perch finishes but plain old gold and silver minnow patterns work too. I am attaching a picture of a small wallie I caught on a "pale perch" colored Roadrunner type lure I was fishing for perch. But fire tiger is a good color too.
Crappies will hit almost any kind of small tube jig or twister...as well as small minnow-imitating cranks and spinners. Most of the ones I know of have been caught on small jigs being fished for perch...like the one I caught off the end of the island in the attached picture. It was 15" and hit a red/chartreuse tube jig I use a lot on perch lakes. But all white or all chartreuse work well too. And always good to tip your jigs with a piece of worm or perch meat.
