Super User DitchPanda Posted August 17, 2021 Super User Posted August 17, 2021 So we all know colors like blacknblue, Junebug, green pumpkin,California craw and the deal all produce. But I'm looking to expand my TRD color pallet. Are there any odd or not commonly mentioned colors that you have good success with? Quote
Black Hawk Basser Posted August 17, 2021 Posted August 17, 2021 Coppertreuse has been dynamite for me. 6 Quote
Super User GreenPig Posted August 17, 2021 Super User Posted August 17, 2021 Green Pumpkin Goby has surprised me in it's effectiveness on our Spots Quote
Super User gim Posted August 17, 2021 Super User Posted August 17, 2021 White lightning or bubble gut. There is an orange colored one that looks pretty good too that might be effective when they're gorging on crayfish. Quote
Finessegenics Posted August 17, 2021 Posted August 17, 2021 Another vote for coppertreuse. Bubble gut is a good one too. I’ll add a new one to the discussion; Meat Dog. Slays on the river for me 1 Quote
ironbjorn Posted August 17, 2021 Posted August 17, 2021 Green Pumpkin Orange, Coppertreuse, and Green Pumpkin Goby are my favorites. Quote
Super User Team9nine Posted August 17, 2021 Super User Posted August 17, 2021 I’ve never thrown a color of TRD that hasn’t caught fish. A couple non-standards I use most would be Coppertreuse, GP orange and Hot Snakes. 3 Quote

Bubble gut…… that’s exactly what occurs when fishing after having gas station biscuit with black coffee on the way to the ramp 3 Quote
Super User gim Posted August 17, 2021 Super User Posted August 17, 2021 Just now, TnRiver46 said: Ha! Bubble gut…… that’s exactly what occurs when fishing after having gas station biscuit with black coffee on the way to the ramp I actually only bought that color because of my 2.5 year old kid who has his own “bubble gut.” Wouldn’t you know, I tried it and caught few fish with it. 1 Quote
Super User fishwizzard Posted August 17, 2021 Super User Posted August 17, 2021 How is Coppertreuse non-standard? It's like the second best color! 3 Quote
Super User FishTank Posted August 18, 2021 Super User Posted August 18, 2021 Drew's craw and Goby Bryant. Quote
Russ E Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 Z man Twilight. It works well here in the summer. Other companies call it morning dawn 1 Quote
BigAngus752 Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 I buy 10+ bags of Zinker Zs every year and I buy only Coppertruese. It's ridiculously good. Quote
Super User NorthernBasser Posted August 18, 2021 Super User Posted August 18, 2021 Molting Craw does quite well for me. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted August 18, 2021 Global Moderator Posted August 18, 2021 Twilight, Coppertrueuse, GP Goby, Mood Ring, and GP Orange are standard colors for me. Bubble Gum and White Lightning are great in the right conditions. I wish they'd make the TRD in Purple Death but I settle for the Ticklerz for now. I don't carry black and blue or California Craw in the TRD. Quote
Super User DitchPanda Posted August 18, 2021 Author Super User Posted August 18, 2021 I'm gonna pick up a pack of coppertreuse since basically everybody has mentioned it. I'm also gonna get a pack of twilight...just because I don't get it...and I wanna see if it works. Quote
GetFishorDieTryin Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 Every color I've tried works, molting craw, pbj, mudbug, cali craw, perfect perch have all done well but if I could only have 1 color it would be blkblu. Quote
waymont Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 Coppertreuse and pink are both great colors. Quote
Lead Head Posted August 18, 2021 Posted August 18, 2021 Coppertruse and Hot Snakes are by far my most successful colors. I have done really good with Hot Snakes when they are targeting bluegill. Quote
Super User Spankey Posted August 18, 2021 Super User Posted August 18, 2021 I have to get their color Greasy Prawn. It will work for me because it is basically the sand color pattern. Local bait shop guy is not great about ordering (hence I don’t support the guy all that well), do see where I can order it directly. This sand pattern is a good working color for me this time of year. General lack of rain keeps the river very clear. Find it works well at these times. 1 Quote
Super User gim Posted August 18, 2021 Super User Posted August 18, 2021 Zman sure must have a good marketing team. The names of some of their TRD colors are very unique. Quote
