Bruce,
Would like to second Preston's endorsement- Reversed Spiders. Yellow and
hot orange are great colors. Chartruese and pink are a close second. Also
would like to recommend the Sandstrom Baitfish (lime). I think you'll find
out as Fall approaches, pink and chartruese will become your "go to"
colors.
Knock 'em dead!
