I've got black/red, black/orange, white/red, blue/white, green/black, green/white...I've got a rainbow!....speaking of which, I need to start tying again!

I exclusively fish at night, around Newport Harbour and the Goat Island Causeway.. biggest producer for me have been fresh poggies and "storm 6" shads in albino"... I have tried black bombers, kastmasters, black sluggos, white sluggos, chug bugs, redfins etc, but nothing beats a storm shad, as long as there are no blues around.

I say if you are fishing third shift, you need only 2 colors, black and white... black if no moon/no light, and white if you are fishing under street lights etc

Any "seasoned salt" input is wellcome

I have always fished a chartreuse or white buck w/ a chart. grub, but this season I have tied up a bunch of olive w/ some flash and a strip of white on the bottom. I'll probably throw a white grub on there to give 'em something to chew on. Now all we need is fish.
