Truthfully, the one that is catching fish is the color needed. Thus can you spell rainbow? My Go To Colors are Chartreuse, Neon Pink, White, Black, Chrome, Yellow and Orange. There are days few and far between when every color catches fish and there are days to numerous to count where only 1 combo works. If you are on fish, and you aren't spooking them, presentation comes first, color comes second and luck comes third. Last spring my buddy could not keep crappie off of his line, He was using a Blue bodied, clear tailed with firecracker sparkles tube. I had a similar tube and could not catch a fish. I did not have the firecracker sparkles and he only had 1 left. Something so subtle as glitter in the tail can make a difference on some days.

Fish for fun and catch a few and I'm happy, catch a bunch and I'm ecstatic, go home empty handed I'm relaxed, fire up the grill, take a quick shower, toss on a couple burgers and I'm Happy! happy! Happy!.
