Title: 5 inch senko
Post by: parrothead on 04/12/21 09:17 UTC: Just a sample of my many tries with the 5in Senko mold. Don't think the purple will catch anything but it sure is pretty. Not trying to match any particular color; just having fun now trying different combinations. Some look pretty good [ Invalid Attachment ]

Ditto-

Bassmaster magazine had an article on purple worms back in the 1980s where they stated that purple was the all-time top producing color (at that time) and was a personal fave of mine for a number of years... there were no mixed baits like we see today, but be assured that purple DOES catch fish!

Post by: bassinfool on 04/13/21 10:57 UTC: You're referring to the light purple one second from the left? That thing will for sure catch fish. Wacky or weightless T rig and just twitch it to give it a dying shad appearance- I promise you that thing will get bit.

Post by: parrothead on 04/13/21 11:00 UTC: I'm taking them to Lake Norman in N.C. in June (family summer trip). Will let you know how the purple one works. Thanks for the many nice replies and encouragement. I'm going to keep playing with colors.
