Senko colors

[Jim in VA]

Hey all:



Seen a few posts and a recent chat about senko colors. My question is which color have folks found to work best? I've only started using them regularly this season and the best one so far for me on both Lake Anna and the Potomac River has been the dark pumpkin with chartruese tipped tail. I've tried the dark purple, lemon and white but don't seem to get nearly the bites. Others have also mentioned the bubble gum pink (or cotton candy) color. My only thought on that one is what the heck is THAT color supposed to imitate? Thoughts? Advice?

Bubble gum (in all types of baits - including spinnerbaits) is a great color. Jimmy Houston uses bubblegum spinnerbaits quite a bit.



It probably just 'ticks off' the bass.

Green pumpkin all the way!!! Hey Tex, I've been wanting to try bubble gum. Do you really get good results from it?

I haven't tried senko's in bubblegum, but in flukes, floating worms, etc., it works great.
