I "might" change colors a couple of times a day, but usually don't have to "IF" I find out where & how deep they're holding. My partner may change colors 6-10 times a day, unless I'm burning them up .... and then he just puts on the same color.

I might even start out with a "carrot" shaped body, then switch to a shad body, or vice versa ... but, for a real change of "style", I'm more apt to lay the jig rod down and pick up the Road Runner rod.

If I were to have to fish from the bank ... I'd still be using weedless jigheads with my plastics. And I would only throw Road Runners to cover the top few feet of water ... just like I do when fishing from a boat.
