Gold body. Chartreuse tail. It’s a high-visibility combination that’s been catching inshore fish for decades, and for good reason. The warm gold tone catches light in stained or off-color water, while the bright chartreuse tail adds a flash of color that draws fish in from a distance. This is a go-to combination on overcast days, in murky tidal water, or any time you need a little extra visibility to get fish to commit.

Is chartreuse a good color for redfish?
Chartreuse is one of the top producing colors for redfish in the Southeast, particularly in stained or murky water. The gold body adds even more visibility without going full neon.
What jig head color should I pair with Gold and Chartreuse?
A chartreuse or red jig head from the Fish On! lineup makes a natural pairing. Both colors complement the swimbait and maintain high visibility in off-color water.
Does this color work in clear water?
It can work, but it’s primarily a dirty-water color. For clear conditions, consider Smoke, Pearl White, or Mad Minnow for a more natural presentation.
