Updated : Favorite ZMan TRD Colors ? 2024
ChrisD46 reply :
Quite a bit of expanded Zman TRD colors of late - any new ones you have tried out with success or want to try ? ... Hot Snakes is a newer good small mouth / spotted bass color due to the bright green (although toned down from the neon green of the Coppertreuse color) ... Meat Dog is 50-50 Green Pumpkin and Purple and looks like it would be a good large mouth color ... Hot Craw should be good in pre-spawn when bass key in on the color Red more . When all else fails - perhaps the new all -Black Yoga pants color is such a strong silhouette color that bass will hit it out of curiosity or necessity when the water is muddy . Lastly , what ever new color TRD you try out - a single package will last you about 5,000 bass so will know for sure if a new Zman color is good for your area or not .

Perfect Perch and Molting Craw were my favorite this year.
tander reply :
I carry only Green Pumpkin and Junebug, figure if I can't catch them on these 2 colors, they are not biting at all. ????

Drew’s Craw is my new favorite, used with a red jighead. Second would be GP Goby with a chartreuse jighead.
Honestly Z-Man has so many good colors that I change it up a lot, keeping to one “light baitfish” and one “dark baitfish” color each.

This is a safe space, feel free to express you self.
MN Fisher reply :
Black/Blue Flake and Green Pumpkin were no-shows this past year.
Did get a couple on Canada Craw though.
May pick up a couple more colors to mix it up a bit.
The Bassman reply :
Carry 'em all in one bag when I'm fishing. The lighter ones pick up some color from the others. As for choice I pretty much use whichever one I grab.
Midwest Fisherman reply :
They are all my favorite color but the bass seem to appreciate blue/black, green pumpkin/orange & green pumpkin. Occasionally they will kill the pearl but haven’t seen any pattern in which it works
A-Jay reply :
Green Pumpkin (pictured below) & The Deal have been my top producers.

Jig Man reply :
I carry 21 colors and have caught fish on all but 2 of them.
Finessegenics reply :
As simple as they are, coppertreuse and especially green pumpkin orange absolutely slay the smallmouth for me. Green pumpkin orange perfectly imitates the craws here
Bluebasser86 reply :
Green pumpkin/orange and green pumpkin were far and away my best producers this year. The past few weeks I've been doing good on a Molting Craw Big TRD though and I had one trip this summer the smallies wanted a bubblegum TRD and nothing else.
waymont reply :
Coppertreuse, Cali craw, new money, and Canada craw are all I use every year.
ChrisD46 reply :
Good replies ! ... I need to give Molting Craw a chance this coming year .
SAL321 reply :
These just work well. Of course it's situational on weather and such but Canada Craw, The Deal and Green Pumpkin Goby send the SM on St. Clair into a frenzy.
reelfast reply :
Green pumpkin and Junebug have been my best 2.

The southern highland reservoir (LM and spotted bass) I fish is a "use any color - as long as it's green pumpkin" fishery ... I'm trying to become more educated and branch out to test this theory with other colors which may be dependent on water temp , water color , what part of water column , etc. to see what else may work in the way of TRD colors .
Hawkeye21 reply :
All I've ever needed was green pumpkin and black/blue.
ww2farmer reply :

Out of curiosity, what were the 2 colors?
Steelhead reply :
I do well on all colours. Of the newer colours Mood Ring, Green Pumpkin Goby and Yoga Pants have been excellent. Purple Death in the Ticklerz has been deadly.

These are the three that I normally carry as well. I think I have some new moneys as well but not sure if I used them or not.
Bird reply :
I only carry 3 colors......Green pumpkin, California Craw and Junebug.

*Don't forget Junebug if Black & Blue are not working as a dark color / stained water color .
