Super User Montanaro Posted March 5, 2015 Super User Posted March 5, 2015 When fishing beds, do yall have a bag of white soft plastics on deck in case they are not taking usual colors? Is the white more for the fisherman so he can see it on the bed, or is it for ticking off the fish? Quote
Joedodge Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 I keep some in my bag at all times. I've seemed to have better luck with dark colors tho Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 5, 2015 Super User Posted March 5, 2015 One of my top producers in 2014 was the Rage Tail Structure bug fished on a Chatterbait, Rage Blade and Wobble Head, white on white. Quote
Global Moderator Mike L Posted March 5, 2015 Global Moderator Posted March 5, 2015 When I fish beds the first color is always white. I will rotate between a bb cricket and then a beaver/bug of some kind usually a sweet beaver or rage craw. Haven't tried the Rage structure bug yet, but will at the Nation's next week. I do that because I can see a definite difference in thier attitude toward white than any other color. Thats not to say that other color's won't catch a bedding fish, they will and have, but for some reason white makes em a little nuts at first. Mike Quote
Super User Senko lover Posted March 5, 2015 Super User Posted March 5, 2015 I remember Jacob Powroznik (however that's spelled) talking about his win in the elite series last year. He was trying to catch a 7 1/2 pounder on a bed. Time was running out until the weigh-in on the last day. He had worked it [the bed] with every soft plastic he could think of. He finally decided to try a white color. BANG. First cast, she ate it and he won the tournament. Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted March 6, 2015 Super User Posted March 6, 2015 The only white soft plastic I use is the Super Fluke. Everything else is natural color, or darker. 1 Quote
ABW Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Hmm... I wonder what a white lizard will do then. May need to try that out 1 Quote
Super User Darren. Posted March 6, 2015 Super User Posted March 6, 2015 Hmm... I wonder what a white lizard will do then. May need to try that out Same here. I have a few Yamamoto "white" slim senkos, otherwise, I rarely fish white soft plastics. I've had great success with Zoom watermelon gold lizards - wacky rigged, no weight, when bed fishing, white will be added to my arsenal this year, methinks. Quote
