Colors - Whats HOT in your area?
It always boggles my mind why some shops cringe if I bring them 6 pink lures fearing that they will collect dust, while other shops would take pink everything and anything.
Inquiring minds want to know whats the top colors of choice in your area. Areas: Cape Cod - Cape Side Only Cape Cod Canal - Mainland Side and surrounding areas RI - South County and the upper bay MV - The Island NY - Montauk NY - Long Island NY - Everywhere Else CT - River fishing included Include your area with your response so people can figure out what to bring when they go, and I can figure out what to paint. :) |
Some people fish north of the cape. I like orange.

My top three are: 1. Chartruse/Silver or White 2. Yellow/White 3. Black/Purple 4. White |
A couple of years ago, the black and orange darter was responsible for some quality Stripers at Montauk. Yellow has always been big there as well with pencils, bottles and darters.

A periwinkle /pearl white swirl with a touch of mauve around the eye, would be nice I think.
|
Yeth, I hear mauve works well around P-town :happy: :happy:
Hey, what the hell is mauve, anyway? :confused: |
Quote:
And mauve is a grayish lavender I think, so it probably is effective out on the tip of the Cape. |
