Good advice Cap'n Ken....Match the hatch is always areliable technique, especially in the spring and summer, I agree 110%!

I also agree,I never saw any Chartreuse Pepper looking realbaits, but I sure have seen a bunch of reds with one hanging in the corner of their mouths when I'm pulling them to the boat! They're not my every day fishingchoice, but I never leave home without them! (at least 1 pack anyway)

The "BONE"slightly peppered off-white colored 4" shrimp have also been productive for me at times!

Like Ken said, confidence is key, but when your confidence lure doesn't work, experiment.......I can always NOT catch a fish withthe wrong color as well asNOT catchthem with the right color, so if the bite is off, keep switching around till something works, or call it a day,have a beer and go home!!
