WPCfishing Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Doesn't matter which style crank or depth... Just name your favorite color crank! I like Tennessee Shad Quote
Super User scaleface Posted April 28, 2015 Super User Posted April 28, 2015 Being the waters I fish are usually stained green , deep diving cranks doesnt make much difference to me. I just use whatever tickles my fancy at the time. Shallow cranks I definitely like a bluegill imitator with a good amount of yellow on it . Like the one second from the bottom. Thats a real nice color that the bass inhale. Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted April 28, 2015 Super User Posted April 28, 2015 Varies by style Squarebills: bluegill Lipless: Red craw Mid + deep depth: chart.sexy shad. Quote

Shockwave Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 I've done well with black and gold in dirty water. Quote
ABW Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 If it has the name Megabass on it then all of them. Generally speaking, Red Craw, Sexy shad, Bluegill Quote
Super User Senko lover Posted April 29, 2015 Super User Posted April 29, 2015 Crankbait: sexy shad. Lipless: red Quote
papajoe222 Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Fat Free Shad's Tenn. Shad and Strike King's Sexy Shad have been my best producers for the last few seasons. Quote
Super User RoLo Posted April 29, 2015 Super User Posted April 29, 2015 I really have no favorite crankbait color, but focus more on the pattern. I like to see a distinct color transition along the lateral line, a finish with defined scalation and if possible a 'shoulder dot' like a shad, herring, alewife ~ ~ Roger Quote
McKinneyLonghorn Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 The one I catch the most fish on is a custom-painted black and blue wakebait. It works great in stained to muddy water and is great at night because of not only the color but also the wide wobble and loud rattles. The second best color I use is matte firetiger. 1 Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted April 29, 2015 Super User Posted April 29, 2015 Bluegill for clear, fire tiger for stained/murky. Quote
Super User the reel ess Posted April 29, 2015 Super User Posted April 29, 2015 I like the shad patterns but with something a little different.: A purple back or smokey color. Something to set it apart from the millions of shad out there. But lately, I'm fishing a place with gold shiners and I look for a gold/black pattern. AND CRAWFISH!!! Quote
IndyGlockMan Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Bluegill patterns seem to work best around here. I've been killing them on KVD 1.5 in Bluegill and Rapala shallow diver in bluegill for the past week or two. Quote
primetime Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 For some reason they all seem to have some chartreuse in them even if a touch, but I like to use a spike it chart marker and put a stripe on each side of all crankbaits when water is not crystal clear, or when bream are the foodsource..Right now I am throwing all chart/blue or chart/blacks in stained water with weeds.

ThatZX14Fella Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 I don't believe I've ever caught a bass off of a crankbaits, so I guess I don't have a favorite color. I only use one about once or twice a year. Quote
