    Default Hey Guys Need Some help picking colors


    Hey guys I got a couple more colors of the big shinny stuff and want some help in picking head and tail colors to try with it. Here is my first one tied and it's Black/Copper/Chart. What do you guys think?
    Really appreciate any help!

    Thanks,

    I really like that one. What about Copperhead pp and orange or brown tail. Crawdads will be changing soon.

    I kind of thought of that and just didn't have the head painted with the Copper Vein already which I have a lot of. I also thought about Brown tail and I think that your idea sure could be a good natural color.

    take the black head away and add gold plated and take a look at I think it would shine it ride up skip.I would leave the tail color alone in the body also.

    Or maybe keep that black head and put a kingfisher blue tail on it.

    I like the color you tied, I know a place it will work. The other colors sound good too.

    I have some FL Cerise I was thinking about for a tail. I am not big on the black head either, it was just sitting on top my tying station so I tied it.

    I am thinking about maybe some Candy orange for the head too. I need to look at all my candy colors, maybe even Raspberry?

    Still letting all your and my thinking sink in a bit.
