the only time i use flukes are in the heat of summer when the bass are schooling or just wont hit other baits   i use a natural cheek chub color in clear water which is white with some black and green on its back   if the water is murky or stained i usally dont fish flukes but the color they will hit for me is a white or chartaruse    i try to keep the fluke right up top if the water is murky or stained

Clear water - White

Murky water - White and Watermelon

Muddy water - I don't use one

But the best thing to do is let the fish tell you what they want. A fluke can be fished so many different ways and year round. I have some lakes where the fish prefer Watermelon no matter what color the water. The fish on my home lake will only hit white. There is no obvious reason for it but that is all they want.

I love Assassins and Flukes. Never could see any situations where color was a big deal. But I'd try your white ice in clear water and try a dark color in darker water.

I've had a lot of luck with the Rainbow Shad color in clear water. Just remember a general rule- white and translucent colors in clear water, and darker colors in muddy water.

I have never had any luck fishing flukes in dark/muddy watter...they just dont put off enough vibrations....at least not enough for my likings

White ice is a great all around color, I catch fish with it in water that has 20 feet of clarity or 6" of clarity, doesn't matter, they find it. ;)

I always start with a pearl colored one. They see a million of them and are still dumb to them. I also like the smoke shad, albino and arkansas shiner. I have not experimented with the watermelon one but I am sure they would work.

I have had good luck in clear and slightly stained water with the "Smoking Shad" color.  I have not had much luck on the albino for some reason.  I don't throw them in muddy water.  My favorite situation is to throw them after in rains at a inflowing creek, drain or culvert.  When the fish are active this bait slayes them.

How do u fish these things,Do u keep the pole down and twitch it or do have your rod up and pop it like a worm or senko.
