    For a very long time now I have only used one plastic. A Bison colored Trout Magnet. I usually get about 2000 crappie a year with it. Not going to get into discussion about does color matter as that has been beat to death. One person it does matter for is the manufacturer. If a manufacturer only made one color they would go broke.

    Regards

    That is interesting. Makes a man wonder if he’s overthinking this whole thing.

    I'm a long liner and pull 14 lines at once. There's alot of different colors I like and the fish do too but if I could only take one color fishing it would be this one...

    The color combo that Gabowman posted above is a go-to color for me as well.
    Yes, I was talking to myself; sometimes even I have to ask for expert advice.

    By far, the spike tail grub. Color not important though if forced to chose, it would be black body/pearl tail. The design never fails and can be worked real slow but still allows the thin tail to quiver. A light jig head is essential!

    This 2m cavity mold is for the tail only which I fuse various bodies using a candle flame and soldering gun:

    There is a mold that copies a popular stick tail lure:

    Correct: 2m cavity mold to 20 cavity mold. The problem is what to do with all the many lures made regardless of lure type!
