You can have any brand, shape or size, but only ONE color of plastic to fish year-round.  Will you be as successful over multiple seasons as with no color restrictions?

It is really hard to say but I'll tell you for me personally, the answer would be no, I would not be as successful. If I could only have 1 color it would be black, and it is because it works in all water clarities but that is it. I would suffer during late fall and mid summer with 1 color and that is because the water get low and clear in the river and the smallmouth get real selective, and during the cold water period you won't get bit unless you have some kind of purple or blue in your bait, smoke purple tubes are hammers during late fall/early winter. So while I will have success with 1 color, it won't be as successful as it is without color restriction.

I don't believe I would be as successful but if I had to pick one color it would be green pumpkin.

Purple (Junebug). Followed closely by Green (Green Pumpkin and/ or Watermelon). Black (w/ Blue flake) would also be right there. Just one, Purple.

Toss up between green pumpkin and black.  The edge would need to go to Green Pumpkin now that you made me think of it.  Can always dip the tips in Chartreuse.

It would be no for me. In the condition I fish, similar to that of smalljaw67. He couldn't put it any better.

In my case black, green pumpkin or roadkill, colors I love to fish would peter out in clear water.

I dont know . If I only had green with a chartreuse tail to fish I may catch more fish than using lots of colors or I might not .  I sure like to use purples and browns though .

I remember being told you can throw any color you want..... as long as it's green pumpkin.  And then I look at my numerous bags of plastics

Green Pumpkin no matter the size from 4inch-10inch every size works. Doesn't matter if its the spawn or fall Green Pumpkin always delivers.

Watermelon black flake. It's hard to know if I would be as successful but it might be kind of boring.

Two or three colors, yes. One, no, unless I also restricted the water bodies I fish to only one, as well.

i would opt for green pumpkin from confidence, but junebug would work just about as well for me too....  

who knows, catch rate might improve for some with only 1 bait.... less time changing lures, more time with the lure in the water!

Nope, I fish water from less than w.2 inches of visibility to more than 10. I need a spectrum of colors to maintain the same success rate.
