Dear Mr. Canal Rat. most of the poppers have a white/yellow or silver bottom. Except for the night designs they are usually purple or black, I've even seen bright red. Same principle applys to sub surface lures. you'll want to go with light colors during the day and dark at night or on darker water conditions.

Start with White then change your colors to what works, Red /White, Red /Yellow, Blue/White, all Yellow, all Lime, and Black are my favorites. And try Poppers at night YES Night, also Black during the cloudy day can be Deadly. This is what works for me...............GOOD LUCK...................

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....
