As far as plastics go what color do you have the most confidence in. The One color or colors you won't go fishing without ? Mine is watermelon with red flake & junebug.
Mine is watermelon seed, on a zoom horny toad or fluke.
What color or colors of plastics you won't leave home without!!! Mine are watermelon with red flake and junebug and red shad.
It really depends on whether It's day or night.
Here's a few though: Watermelon/red, black, red/shad, smoke,(with some kind of flake) white/shad, and black /red flake.
Watermelon red flake and june bug/ black with blue flake (senkos only though)
Watermelon Candy or Black/Blue
I like just about any color with "green pumpkin" in the name.
black and junebug
I don't know the exact name but it's a neon green and yellow laminate senko
I used to carry two colors, black and pumpkinseed. But over the years I've seen what my partners do and I've tried other colors as well. My feeling is that watermelon, green pumpkin, junebug and numerous other colors work just as well. I could be 100% wrong, but I just don't have color at the top of my priority list. It's extremely important for others though. Like so many other things, go with what you have confidence in.

I'm with whitwolf, it really depends on the situation.
This year I have had a lot of confidence fishing Houdini colored plastics. Others would be black, smoke, watermelon, orange and chartreuse. Keep in mind that these are mostly colors of grubs that I jig fish for smallies, or ds worms.
The most versatile soft plastic color that I've ever fished for LMB would be a tie between blue w/metallic fleck and red/motor oil/brown. These colors seem to produce under a vast array of conditions.
Zoom - Watermelon Red Flake, California 420, Green Pumpkin, Red Bug, Albino, June Bug - (Maybe Blueberry too)
Roboworm - Aaron's Magic, Bold Bluegill, SXE Shad, Warmouth
Reaction Innovations - Green Pumpkin, Penetration, Dirty Sanchez
Senko - Watermelon, Green Pumpkin Blk Flake, MotorOil Red Flake
I fish other brands and but not as much as these guys. (Culprit, Berkley Worms and Berkley and Big Bite Baits trailers, Yum dingers and crawbugs) I generally stick with green pumpkin, watermelon, june bug and black and blues. There are some I've had success with like green pumpkin blueflash and tequila sunrise type colors that work too.
Motor Oil and Pumpkins and Cinammons are good colors too, I just don't use them much.
If I had to only choose only one colour, it would be Green Pumpkin. It works great in clear to stained water and if I fish dirtier water then I'll just choose a bait that puts off more vibration like a rage craw.
For jigs, I wouldn't mind buying only black and blue.
Cinnamon Pepper Neon Junebug Laminated
watermelon red, green pumpkin orange/magic and tequila sunrise. I can count on the colors in any bait or situation
Hands down, green pumpkin. Junebug is good also.
I am brand new to soft plastic fishing but so far watermelon with red and black flakes is by far my favorite color.

Green Pumpkin and Black/Blue.
Watermelon Candy , Smoke Purple , Green Pumpkin & Black/ Blue work well for me most soft plastics. When I'm fishing Flukes/ Caffiene Shad type of baits Baby Bass & White do well for me.
Black in off color water, Green Pumpkin in everything else as far as slow moving plastics.
Flukes and what not, white.
watermelon red, hands down
Green pumpkin. Any flake you like. Its an anywhere any time color.
here lately I only buy two colors. Green Pumpkin and Junebug. All you need. Green in clear water, Junebug in stained muddy water. All the other colors are to catch fisherman, not fish.
Watermelon red/black, green pumpkin
It's interesting reading the different preferences that each member has.
I'm all about Green Pumpkin & Straight Black.
They have proven themselves to me Time & Time again.
Though it's hard to do, but when the bite is on is when I like to try "new" colors.
And there have been times where I've switched off to something else as it seems to be the preference at that time.
But when the bite is tough, I'm fishing new water or even looking for a big bite, more often than not, it's got to be Green Pumpkin or Straight Black.

Green pumpkin, green pumpkin magic, green pumpkin blue flake, green pumpkin orange flake, green pumpkin red flake, green pumpkin purple flake, green pumpkin candy. It's like the fishing version of the shrimping scene from Forrest Gump
Any color as long as it's Green Pumpkin or variant of that like Candy!
Watermelon red flake or green pumpkin black flake
Gotta be green pumpkin or just plain ol' white!
Seems there is a trend here, green pumpkin and watermelon.... hmmmm
For me it seems to be green pumpkin flavor or a flavor of brown
They make other colors besides green pumkin? I have fished in 8 different states across the US and it has worked everywhere. The only place that GP did not work was a small pond on FT Leonard Wood, MO where the Army practiced building floating bridges.

green pumkin / black flake
