of the "toned down paint scheme" there...
i remember talkin with kevin Vandam... years ago about his
theory of spinner bait speed and how he burns em by fish really fast
at times so they barely see the bait...
and i asked him about why plugs with worn off paint sometimes become favorites...
because of how well they catch...like the plugs that are now bone color
....or the under-finish color... or more subtle paint schemes...

ect.
