Jig Thrower Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 Just wondering what everyone uses for colors with their soft plastics. The only color i realy use is green pumpkin and didnt know if there were any other popular colors. Thanks. Quote
bigfruits Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 green pumpkin and watermelon 95% of the time maybe black in murky water if im smallie fishing sometimes i get crazy and use chartruese grubs i usually use smoke, clear or white colors to imitate baitfish Quote
Matt 825 Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 Green Pumpkin In the Spring Watermelon Seed / Watermelon w/ Red Fleck in Summer Light Watermelon Seed in early Fall & back to Green Pumpkin in Late Fall I will adjust the color also by the type/ color of the weeds in the lake or the color of the rocks if t here are any. But almost always colors are in the green & brown family. When the Bite is off I will use Chartruese with Blue Fleck. I call it radiation color. Quote
fishizzle Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 my top colors in order GP/black flake watermelon pumpkin black Quote
Shad_Master Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 My primary summer color is Junebug or Junebug Red - for some reason I have also had good luck with Pumpkin in the fall - but Greenpumpkin is by far the most popular, at least around here. Quote
deadeye32. Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 I agree with everybody, but I have had good luck with black and blue in the winter months Quote
wisturkeyhunter Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 A nice dark almost black gray/smoke color is hard to beat for smallie but really any dark color is good and sometimes a lighter one. Quote
TrippyJai Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 watermelon w/ black or watermelon w/ red is my favourite summer time colour. but green pumpkin is great too. if i am catching lots of fish, i like to use Bubble gum or bright pink to shock them. they go nuts over this colour. Quote

Super User Crestliner2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Super User Posted October 2, 2008 In my neck of the woods, anything green does the trick. My line-up includes watermelon w/blk flake, watermelon w/blk flake and maybe even watermelon w/blk flake. Quote

urp Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 White. Contrary to conventional wisdom, my best night time producer for fish ove 5 lbs is a chrome flatfish. Quote
GRiver Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 Green pumpkin, or green pumpkin w/char. tail. Or watermelon.. I've have had much luck with any other colors. G Quote
A-Rob Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 I like any realistic color, I have luck with browns and greens. My lake is fairly clear so I tend to start with those. But I have no problem throwing a black/blue or junebug color which have caught me some fish when nothing else has. I love that new junebug color, smallies seem to like it. Quote
