I would say you have to look at water clarity....the clearer the water the more natural you get...if it gets murkey you add or change to brighter colors.
Hope it helps! Grin

I think color is more of an issue in clear water for obvious reasons. When I fish at night or really dirty water like some ponds I fished in California, then black was the best or at least something dark. In clear water, I feel the match the hatch theory works well. Since we don't have threadfin or gizzard shad like most thriving bass water, I've come to like perch colored baits, especially cranks and jerks.

I like Smoke and Pepper flake, looks rather neutral in the water and takes on a silvery tint, I guess much like sticklebacks and other little baitfish.

I think a lot of as you would agree and as Steve said, has to do with what you have used and had success with. And since I havent had any success, I just have an opinion. Any way, as far a tube goes I like Watermelon Copper and Pepper flake. I think the copper gives it a little flash. As far as Worms or grubs go, I like more of a natural color, night crawler type colors, 176 in Yamamoto and Summer NIght Crawler Brown in Kalins.
Just what I have done the best with.

Short answer: Green Pumpkin with black flake.  The long answer is: Depends on whether you're fishing it on the bottom, swimming it up off the bottom, or expecting the hit on the fall. Exact color is not a huge issue, color density is.  There are some colors I just don't use, 'cause I've never had any good results with them. One I've never had good results on is one of your  favorite colors, Russ. Confidence in a color is crucial.
