    Default Color Question


    Three of the most popular soft plastic colors for bass are Green Pumpkin, Junebug, and Black/Blue. Anyone use these colors for crappie? Wondering why they wouldn't eat these colors.

    Crappies are smarter than bass, but I think if you put any of those colors in front of a hungry fish, it will eat it. Bass, crappie, cat, gill, etc

    I have never tried them. Just curious if any else has. Lots of views and no comments.

    I have used those colors of Charlie Brewer Sliders with good results. They have chartreuse tails.

    It really seems like color preference can change from lake to lake. Or is it that the fisherman's preference changes? Up here (Missouri), we love our chartreuse, but I was recently in Alabama, and all they could talk about was Monkey Milk (?)! Yes, that is a color....No, I don't know how they came up with that name, and NO, I don't want to find out how they came up with it!

    Bass like to grub around on the bottom. Those are bottom colors. Crappie look up all the time. I do like dark jigs at night or in murky water.
