Depends on water clarity and time of year.

 

In the Atchafalaya Basin during the summer the water can be muddy to heavily stained (4-6 inches of visibility). I generally use a black/blue/purple/orange skirt or a black/yellow skirt. If I get into an area where the water has "cleared up" somewhat, I've had good success on a summer craw colored skirt with a Summer Craw colored Rage Craw trailer.

 

In the late fall into winter, I lean more to a brown/orange skirt or black/brown skirt to imitate a crawfish.

 

 

black strands with blue flake and a couple strands of blue on the belly, that's for every type of jig

 

for clearer water, any green pumpkin with dark horizontal stripes that mimic a craw

Back when pork was the thing a black skirt with a brown pork frog or vice versa were the killer combos   for larger  than average bass . They are not as pretty as other  offerings but were deadly .
