Super User Montanaro Posted April 10, 2014 Super User Posted April 10, 2014 Is it worth swapping gold and silver chatterbaits blades for dull black ones? Brett Hite won't use anything but black blades. Is there an advantage of using black blades in clear water on pressured lakes? Quote
mjseverson24 Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 black would be better IMO in dark or dingy water, the more reflective ones should be better for clearer water situations, but these are only rules of thumb, nothing says black cant catch in clear water or silver in dirty... Mitch Quote
Global Moderator Mike L Posted April 10, 2014 Global Moderator Posted April 10, 2014 I used a white and chartreuse with a silver blade in stained water a week ago and it worked fine. I only did it because it was already tied on and didn't want to waste time hunting for another one. Glad I did. Mike Quote
Super User Montanaro Posted April 10, 2014 Author Super User Posted April 10, 2014 The black would seem more subtle to me. I imagine a swim jig appearance with more thump. Quote
MainelyBASS Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 You could try the new D&M Custom Piranha Beast Swim Jig. The blade colors match the jig. Quote
