    Great video and the information is spot on. I find pink and fuchsia the overall best colors for silvers with chartreuse the better choice close to the salt. And, like the video states, on really sunny days, go darker and deeper with purple and black patterns. And front-weighted flies provide the best jigging action (cone heads, dumbbell eyes, bead-chain eyes, or front-weighted lead wire).
