Root Beer seems favored by bluegill and crackers in my lake, but , I confess, I have a large ziplock with EVERY COLOR THEY MAKE. LOL. But top 3 for sure are bison, sowbug, rootbeer, and the new color that looks like monkey milk.
I sometimes use a crappie nibble or a piece of Berkeley power wiggler (nod of the cap to @Alphahawk), but never a live worm with a TM.
When I do use live wigglers, like today, I use a plain jighead, no plastic, as small as possible. I have some 1/32 with #6 sickle hook I painted the heads multiple colors, but favor the black or crawfish red color. I find I hardly ever gut-hook a 'cracker when I use a small jig instead of a plain hook and splitshot.
I go along with Bison, Root Beer, and Sow Bug. I’ve got any color they make and will take a different TM box when I go trout fishing, but in warm waters only those 3 are in my box. I’ve got some trial colors I will be trying out to see if they are good enough for them to put into production.

Double post.
I’ve not toyed much with root beer but my top 4 for panfish would be olive w/ flake, bison, sowbug, and catalpa (black/green). I carry a bunch of other colors as well but you could make it work with these colors for sure.
Y'all can say that again!
PS site is slooooooooooow tonight
In addition to the above I have had very good luck with Bulldog in stream fishing. In the water it kind of reminds you a little of an earthworm color.

Is Shonuff the monkey milk color?

It is
I have some panfish magnets and a few crappie magnets but no trout magnets. I need to order about six colors and set up a box for them. I’ve got some plastics that I’m just going to bag and give away. Not cuz they don’t work but the learning curve advances and I can’t carry every body that works.
Bulldog works on KY/Barkley real well, it’s #2 for me behind Bison if I’m fishin a trout magnet.
I’m waiting for Gunmetal to get back in stock so I can give it a try.

I just bought a 50 pack of the Bulldog color. I hope they catch gills/crackers/crappie.Quote:

I agree on the Bulldog. It doesn’t look like much, but pans really like it.

I belive the panfish magnet kit is trout magnet size plastics with panfish favorite colors chosen.Quote:

Nice, good job.
I got a few colors and one is almost clear with some multi color glitter in it and my local gills like it fine. Sowbug, bison and root beer is the other three I bought a bag of. I still have to get em organized better, I’m ,covered up with plastics.
