Is there a color that will perform well in any water clarity and depth? Would black or Pearl be.a good choice?

If I had to choose just one color it would probably be some kind of shad color or something like copper bream.

Baby bass, chartreuse craw, red craw.

Get what catches your eye as long as it's not crazy.

But if I had to answer I'd say a translucent bait or firetiger

Don't overlook firetiger in clear water, I've caught plenty on it, especially in choppy, windy conditions. Red or yellow craws work good in clear to moderately stained water.

I have never caught anything on firetiger.  Black back Chartreuse is my go to color no matter the conditions.  Rootbeer Chartreuse is quickly becoming my new fav though.

Idk, if there was truly a best color, proven beyond all others... I would use it exclusively. My faves are a few, Chartruse / Black. Limetrusese, Gill and sunfish, shad colors, as well as Gold... I like green craw patterns too....

My first choice most of the time is a shad colored crank.

Chrome black back, gold chrome black back, chrome blue back, firetiger. Those 4 colors have been around forever and they are still around, there must be a reason for it.

Sexy Shad and Gizzard Shad are pretty much the only two colors in my tackle box.

It´s very simple, you can do it as complicated as you want; ia have cranks in a rainbow of colors and patterns, I´m a sucker for a pretty painted crankbait. Or you can do it simple, those 4 colors I mentioned catch fish practically anywhere for me, I would add "shad" and "baby bass" if you are into the "match the hatch" school of thought ( personally I think it´s FOS ).

I'd have to say sexy shad would be my choice to throw in any water condition.

I like me some sexy shad also. They only thing better would be "very sexy shad" but I haven't found that yet.
