Bassin' USA - Bass Fishing Forum Archives

What are the best colors for some of the popular soft plastics that would be used for bass? (senko, brush hog, tubes, etc.)

Sorry to answer a question with a question, but it helps to know what area you are from (or plan to fish)?

As for my personal favorites black, black/blue, melon pepper, green pumpkin, white and chartreuse.

I mainly fish from shore for large mouth bass in stained canals, ponds and decent sized lakes. I'm from New Jersey, Middlesex county.

For plastic worms
Tannic Stained water (Dark brown)- Black Grape is my choice
Green stained water - Blue
Clear water pumpkinseed, green pumpkin, purple,
Producto worms

Tubes
clear water smoke /red and back flake
Dark water - Black blue tails

Stick baits.
Green pumpkin and black grape

Well of course Green pumpkin, Watermeleon candy,Black with red flake,June bug are the mainstays. but I also use red shad, smoke and pearl,watermeleon red. Most of the waters I fish are clear to slightly stained. so the more natural colors prodominate.But the darker the water the darker the lure.
