Cantaloupe Spinnerbait

[rowyourboat]

Saw on bassmaster that mark menendez was using a cantaloupe colored spinnerbait.  Did some research and this style has quite a cult following.  

 

To me ot just looks like yellow with a few red strands double copper Colorado blades. What am I missing?

 

has anyone has any luck with these or know anyone who could make these

I'm more of a watermelon colored crank bait man myself. Occasionally I throw a cucumber colored jig or a plastic worm in gourd color. Anybody else getting hungry?

Looks like living rubber skirts .

Not the exact color, but close. It's more about the copper blades to me.

Would prefer something in barbeque sauce or sweet potato fry.  Watermelon works OK, though.

Nothing magic about it, the color is highly visible in muddy water and is different than chartreuse. A lot of anglers that fish in heavily stained water say that fish become conditioned to chartreuse so this color seems to work better as it is visible but different.
