>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5/12/2006 2:29 PM >>> Larry, They are just a bit lighter than the Copper CP Chenille. I found the trout just don't care. I have taken over 40 Smallmouths on the pepper this year along with a lot of big gills. I have taken a lot of trout on the pepper since the biginning of March up until the rains came about two weeks ago. have not been on the river or the Creek since then.
