what is your spinnerbait go to color 2024

dodgeguy reply :

i catch %85 of my spinnerbait fish on a white spinnerbait.i feel it works so well because it immitates a baitfish perfectly.i'm curious to see what color is the #1 color for spinnerbaits and why.

Brad_Coovert reply :

My go to color is a shad color. White skirt with a few greay strands on the top and a grey stripe on the head.

Very close to a Manns Gray Ghost, LC Chartreuse Shad or Norman Lavender Shad crankbait color, which is my go to crank color.

io pretty much count that as white.awesome color for immitating baitfish.

manny reply :

white for sure. but thats mostly because my mister twister twintail grubs and my berkley chunks are white.

nothing looks cooler than a spinnerbait with a twintail grub.

NEBassMan reply :

I almost always throw a white/chartreuse spinnerbait with tandem blades. Reason being, most all the water i fish is pretty stained, so i think the colorado blade helps them locate and the chartreuse helps them to zero in on it.

I couldn't agree more I fish spinnerbaits in clear water and like everything else natural works best.

Ky_Lake_Dude reply :

White or chartreuese and white.

Randall reply :

Clear skirt with silver or gold glitter or flake.

justfishin reply :

I am a spinnerbait man and have tons of them but, the one I reach for the most typically is a white one with Indiana blades. It seems to be my most productive. If I am fishing gin clear water I use blue glimmer the most.

Munkin reply :

Clear water spinnerbait.

BASS fisherman reply :

As usual, I am the odd one.

My goto is black. I have caught bass on it in just about all conditions.

But then again, I throw the black more than any other color.

I have never caught a bass on any other color spinnerbait than black, even though I do throw other colors.

kbkindle reply :

kb here 1/4 oz whiteskirt or chart/white skirt gold willow and chrome colorado blades

RoLo reply :

Few things in life have remained so stable as the favored colors for spinnerbaits.

Even before their name changed from safety-pin spinner to spinnerbait (early 60s I believe)

"chartreuse and white" were the most popular colors. Several decades later,

nothing has really changed, because chartreuse and white are still the most popular colors.

There must be something to it

Vyron reply :

chartreuse

Rattlinrogue reply :

I catch 'em on white,chartreuse,black,gold tinsel,and silver tinsel;but #1 for me is definately white.I catch,probably,80% of my spinnerbait bass a white skirt.

cart7t reply :

Chart/White for me, I'll mix the blades up.

texasbass1 reply :

I use Blue/White/Chart most of the time. My biggest SB bass 8.5 lbs came off this color

Catt reply :

White shirt with a white grub/twin tail grub 80% of the time

Siebert Outdoors reply :

For the most part there isnt a go to for me it just doesnt come untied. The main one I throw 99% of the time is a 1/2oz chart/wht with a #4 and #4.5 blade on it. Color can vary in the blades between silver or chart/white.

dave reply :

3/8 oz. golden shiner, tandam blades

Dan: reply :

blue/white/chartreuse

wvubassfan reply :

white with bleeding skirt and trailer hook

or the good old in-line mepps or roostertail, i used those as a kid but they still put bass in the boat on a slow day.

dodgeguy reply :

so it looks like %68 to %70 of us throw white or white/chartreuse or white/silver %80 of the time.

Bankbeater reply :

I throw a white, 1/2 ounce 99% of the time. The other 1% is usually black.

.ghoti. reply :

3/8oz white/chart tandem is my #1 choice. Hard to fix what ain't broke.

Bud reply :

On Ky lake Chartreuse rules. In 3/8 or 1/2 oz

senile1 reply :

White/chartreuse for me with differing blades depending on water clarity and seasonal pattern.

basser89 reply :

Because so many anglers use chart/white, I usually don't throw it. My exception would be on slightly stained water, that's the spinnerbait I'll start with. Time of year plays a factor in my color selection as well. Prespawn, one of my top producers over the past 4 years has been a red shad. Post spawn, I always have a baby bass colored spinnerbait on. Black has worked well for me during the late fall (obviously at night earlier in the year too). On gin clear water, my favorite is a clear skirt (like Randall mentioned) with blue flakes.

eastkybass reply :

I use a white on most days but if the water is real clear and the sun is bright I throw more of a clear shad color bait

bitman reply :

watermelon red-watermelon black-green pumpkin mixed with a few red strands covers all my bases in my clear water lakes

i dont fish much stained or dirty water > I wish I had that luxury
