Sir, you have exceeded the bag limit for !'s and ?'s. You must practice C&R for all !'s and ?'s for the remainder of the day or I will be forced to write you a citation.

;D

Oh, and the answer you're looking for is "42".  ;)


fishing user avatarJake. reply : 

Leech?  :-?


fishing user avatarBlue Streak reply : 

There is a whole lot of information to factor into picking the  "right" color for a particular place at a particular time. If nothing else works just go with the principle of light and dark colors.


fishing user avatarUncle Leo reply : 

Huh? Oh well Junebug I guess.


fishing user avatarD4u2s0t reply : 

from my experience, if they take one color they'll take them all.  that being said i use some type of watermelon, because i like how it looks.  look through any of these type of posts, or posts about the "best worm" or "Best buzzbait" or "best anything" and you'll get a ton of different answers.  the reason for that is plain and simple, there is no best.  If 1 or 2 colors were superior, there wouldn't be a bajillion colors to choose from.


fishing user avatarLund Explorer reply : 

My vote was for Baby Bass...... What other color would you want a bass to be?

Goby.....

fishing user avatarDINK WHISPERER reply : 

If June Bug isn't on the list i'm out...........................and i'm taking FL with me!!!             >:P


fishing user avatarKYntucky Warmouth reply : 

I don't get the choices....some are plastics colors and some are hard bait patterns so which does this refer to....I'm gonna say baby bass though...i have this color in almost everything I own


fishing user avatarFishing Rhino reply : 

At the moment, I'm partial to coppertreuse.

Chartreuse, Watermelon/red, junebug, watermelon/chartreuse laminate, bumblebee, tomato core, root beer, baby bass, smokey shad, and a host of others, have been effective for me.

Can live with any of them.


fishing user avatarburleytog reply : 

tan line


fishing user avatarKoop reply : 

voted chartreuse... but

black

watermelon

green pumpkin

junebug

white

chartreuse

Those are the main colors I use, flecks, speckles, stars, flakes, cakes, jakes and anything else people call all the shiny stuff inside can come in any color with those.  Red and copper seem to be the main 2 I use.


fishing user avatarStagerlee reply : 

Chartreuse I guess.


fishing user avatarGlenn reply : 

The best bss colors?  I prefer the brown and green ones myself.  ::P


fishing user avatarBassinWill301 reply :

fishing user avatarStagerlee reply : 

Haha, this poll..


fishing user avatarjigsey42 reply : 

Any color has it's place .. as long as it's black...  ALWAYS a fan favorite


fishing user avatarMovarus reply : 

Pearl and Watermelon are my favorites.  I usually hit them up with some chartreuse dye.

Out of what is listed, I'd have to go with baby bass as well.


fishing user avatarFishDontLikeMe1301600221 reply : 

that poll should be burned..you forgot the 3 most important colors....WHITE,JUNE BUG and GREEN PUMPKIN!!!!!


fishing user avatarrboat reply : 

Hard baits, I voted shad.

Every body of water has shad or one of his minnow type brethren that bass eat. Most smaller baitfish resemble a form of shad.

Soft plastic,  green pumpkin/watermelon (clearer h2o)

Junebug/Black (murky h2o)

   I fail to concur. I know and fish a lake that has NO shad, or the like. The fish won't touch a silver, white, or shad clored bait. Very picky. Just sayin', some lakes are different and require a special approach.


fishing user avatarswimbait reply : 

I voted leech  :;) I have no idea what color that is. That fits with I have no idea what this poll is about  :P


fishing user avatarCWB reply : 

Scuppernong is not on the list? Harry and Charlie would be very disappointed. I decided it is my right as an American to not vote at all.

Better to not vote than vote fro a bad choice. No Political overtones here. As Geddy Lee of Rush said, "If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice".


fishing user avatariceintheveins reply : 

Out of those I picked crawfish even though shad, bluegill, and baby bass work great as well. In darker water firetiger is my go to.

For plastics though I love plain old pearl white. Imitates just about any young fish small enough for a bass to swallow. Great in most all water conditions. In clear water with bright sun I like more subtle like bluegill or baby bass.
