What colors do you like to throw in this situation....

[Vinny Chase]

Murky/algae water on an overcast day? Worms specifically but you can add it crainks, spinnerbaits, etc.

Vibrations & noise are what you're looking for.

rat-l-traps , spinner baits(large colorado blade.)

[Chris at Tech]

I'd throw a dark colored worm.  Probably start w/Junebug and go to black/blue if needed.

[I.rar]

any color as long as its green. 

[Raul]

Before putting emphasis on color put emphasis on vibration, sound, strong hydrodynamic signature and flash, then choose the color you like.

For those conditions what I use is:

Soft baits: watermelon candy, watermelon green/red flake, green pumpkin/red flake, Red Shad, Tequila Shad, Black Shad, junebug, black/blue flake

Spinnerbaits: white/chartreuse single Tennessee or hammered single colorado gold

Cranks: gold/black back, silver/blue back.

[Fat-G]

If it's off/on raining, 1/2 oz. black/blue jig (make sure it has rattles) with matching trailer. Around wood this is a deadly deadly bait. Gold bladed spinnerbaits are also good.

I've recently found that when it's raining, a Blue Fleck RT Thumper Worm worked through creek channels, on the edges of weed patches with a creek channel near by, and by any underwater timber is a good way to bruise your side from setting the hook.

[New River Fly]

Black, electric blue, any green.

[bassin is addicting]

I'd throw a dark colored worm.  Probably start w/Junebug and go to black/blue if needed.

Can I get an AMEN?!?!?!?!

In spinnerbaits, go chart. or black.  Big colorado thumpin' blade!

[boneil]

10" blueblack worm

[Scorcher214]

To elaborate on what Raul said, You want a worm that will move a lot of water, a larger worm, with some kind of vibrating/curly tail. Or something like a creature bait, with a lot of floppy appendages. In murkier water, a bass's sense will emphasize be more on feel(vibrations)/smell since its eyesight is hampered.

I would try an Strike Rage Tail Anaconda in junebug or watermelon

Top prop in Tri Alive "Fire Perch" This has been an awesome prop lure even with a pause they will strike it.(weedless) Remember to use a trailer hook too. Props are hot..... ;D

BPS Topnocker color #25(topwater its the hottest lure there ever was too bad BPS discontinued it) Short pops will keep it almost in one spot and shallow too.

Joesflies 1/4oz super striker Firetiger Apache. If possible i will run it almost on top or put it below the sight line.

The inline spinners seem to be my hottest lure in the cloudy days with the light rain. (joes flies)

Over cast days remember bright colors......

I also use brighter colors in the evenings as the light turns to dusk. When the bite slows down put on the same bait in a brighter color and the bite will continue for a few more fish until its dark out.

If there is surface weeds i will make a few casts to clear an area of weeds so i can fish it with most baits.

I also use a lot of weedless lures too like the mepps timber doodle, mister twister top prop, scum frogs and a plastic worm rigged weedless with an eagle claw weedless hook.

We also have the option of using a carolina rig in the weeds too.

[florida strain]

junebug worms...mag2 zoom

[Catt]

Before color I want lures that move a lot of water, big tail worms, 5/0 or bigger Colorado blades, & baits with rattles.

Rage Tail any thing, Gene Larew Salty Ringworms, V & M 9" Super Ringer, Zoom G-Tail/Mag Tail or any other of these type plastics.

Now on to color, off colored water is similar to night fishing in that contrast is more important by far than color. Red Shads, Tequila Sunrise, Black Shad, Black Chartreuse Tail, and the old standby Black Blue Tail.

[repper]

well it wasn't overcast toady, but i fished clear lake ca and the water was 2-3 ft vis with algae, very green water. and what they bit best was a rattling jig in black with blue trim and a RI sweet beaver in 4.20. which is dark green on one side, and light and the other, with red flake. was kinda hit and miss but the size was real nice. so i guess contrast, water movement, and i was putting a little hot sauce on em
