[set_the_hook]

What colors do you find yourseelf using the most of?

[Gangley]

I've been knocking them out lately with a Chrome/Blue back Rattletrap and a Green Threadfin Red Eye Shad. 75%+ C/BB Rattletrap though

[bassking1976]

well because of the bait monkey i have every sexy color of the red eye shads none have done better than the other really depends on what their feeding on i ve seen lotta guys have luck with the orange crawfish color around this time of the year i believe in summer the bluegill color will shine

[Cliff Logue]

I use alot of red lipless baits in the spring on lake guntersville in the milfoil.

I use ghost, rayburn red, black/gold, sexy shad in the xcalibur xr50 bait line.

red or shad

[VABassin'14]

Anything that imitates a crayfish seems to work well for me.

[SoFlaBassAddict]

Primarily shad, gold, ghost colors, and chartreuse. Add in whatever accent colors you'd like. They all work.

[Catt]

Gold Shad, Red Chrome, & Toledo Gold

[tholmes]

Chrome/blue, chrome/black, shad, and craw colors work best in the waters that I fish.

[Grey Wolf]

Red and blue work well for me.

[flippin and pitchin]

Crawfish patterns and some Delta red until may then chrome/blue and shad patterns.

[Bluebasser86]

I use Excalibur XR50s a majority of the time in ghost, foxy momma, rayburn red, and gold black. The Red Eye shad in Sexy shad does get the nod every once in awhile too though.

[Fishes in trees]

For the most part, I like something shiny, chrome colored. A Berkley Frenzy Rattle bait in a chrome gizzard shad color is what I use most of the time.

[Hooligan]

The color is "Top Secret". It's a custom paint that is very similar to gold TN Shad on gold prism. It's a neat color.

[deep]

Anything and everything works for me, so long it's not flashy or translucent. I fish stained waters a lot, and have little to no confidence in those. If you want just one color, it's gotta be "sexy shad" though.

[BassThumb]

Chrome/blue with a little orange nail polish around the front hook is my favorite.

Otherwise, I mainly use blue/chart, black/gold, and some kind of neutral minnow color.

Last season, I was having my best luck with a black/chrome XR50 that I speckled like a crappie with black and green Sharpies. I would run this bait through or just under suspended crappie schools and aggressive catch bass.
