Many years ago, plastic worms came in just two colors. Anglers would fish purple worms in clear water, or black in darker waters and at night. Then you would find the same colors with a red tail. We had to try those!
Tom Mann introduced worm colors inspired by food. A flood of new colors like “Scuppernong”, “Appleseed”, “Strawberry” and many more followed suit.
Culprit Worms started the first laminated colors. This series started with “Black Shad”, “Red Shad”, and the “Blue Shad”. The next thing you know; there were at least 30 new colors from which to choose.
Even Road Runners were pretty much just four colors in the sixties. There was white, white with a fluorescent red head, yellow, and black. White was a good color for clear waters. Yellow and black colors were the best for dark or dingy conditions.
