Plastics color

I fish a pearl orange trick worm on smaller ponds in warm weather with low visibilty with great results. For something large like a lake, dam, etc. . . i'd use a black magnum trick worm. Larger the lure, larger the water, hopefully larger the fish! Fish on my friends

Like Mr. Ford said, about the color of h

You can paint your car any color you like, as long as it's black! Same goes for the worm! Secondary colors are Black/blue fleck, black/blue tail.

extra

my favorite color is black but i have anothre idea thats been proven. One night at Lake Geneva I was expirementing and i took an orange and black tube hooked it and pushed it up the line. Then i took a black and yelllow curly tail and hooked that as well. Then i pushe dthe tube down until it was on top of the curly tail. It actually worked and, unfortunately, i ended up snapping my line on a fish and they were the only two lures i had in that color.

Favorite Color Worm - But

Favorite Color Worm but it's a custom color. It's a Smoke & Gold worm that is really soft. It's a Cactusworm from Cactusworms.com. The only place I have found it is on the web. The "Speedy" and the "Cactusworm" are my favorite. If you open the rod compartment on my Triton you will always find then rigged and ready or worn from use.

WORM COLOR

JUNE BUG, GREEN PUMPKIN !!! IT'S A CONFIDENCE THING. I THINK IF A BASS IS READY TO FEED IT WILL BITE ANY COLOR .
—Guest GREG KIDD

Red shad, junebug,rootbeer/green copper

I also like black/blue laminate, And pearl or baby bass in stained water. I've recently tried huckleberry and was very impressed with its motoroil characteristics underwater.

Chartruse has accounted for 60% of all fish I have ever caught. White when fishing for sea bass also caught tons of fish.

Favorite Colors Plastics

This depends on time of year and fish species. Anyway, for bass, lighter colors -pearl, chartreuse silver flake hot at spawn. Regular color arsenals -green pumkin, watermelon redflake, redbug, junebug, electric blue silver flake, shad, smoke purple purple flake. Shad and stick series mimmick dying baitfish...so colors that match baitfish in the waters being fished a good bet. Redbug, junebug, electric blue silver flake for trick worm styles and pearl...wow! All good! Depends on water clarity and light conditions.
—Guest Ben Hobbins / Inventor IronClads

fav color

My Favorite color for any plastic worm is also black because it does work in many conditions and has always helped me.
—Guest newby

June Bug and Red Shad

Ronnie, I agree with the Junebug color. It has been my all time favorite. Redshad is a close second but seems to be the color for spring bass. Nice article.
