Favorite Color Red Eye Shad?

Featured Replies

What color(s)and size do you like using?

I normally buy sexy shad in all sizes but buy the clearance colors at times. Best luck I had was with a 3/4 oz in sexy sunfish, within 3 casts on the 1st time using it ..... was stolen from me by a 5lb+ bass at the shore =(

Looking or some of your favorite and most productive colors to try.

:santa-107: 3/4 oz Chrome & Blue

I like them in all colors especially Chartruesse Shad, Pearl, Red Craw Chartruesse and sexy sunfish. To hard to pick which one i like the best!

Chartreuse Sexy Shad, Chrome Sexy Shad, Gold Sexy Shad and although I haven't tried it yet, that

18kt Tennessee Shad looks pretty sweet.

If you haven't tried the silent versions yet, I would highly recommend it.

In my clear water conditions they really shine but I have had surprising success working them through somewhat turbid conditions as well.

Chrome/blue and Sexy Shad are the two that I do best with.

Chartreuse baitfish, blue gill, and chili craw in the silent version are my favorites.

I like the red eye in 3/4 chartruese sexy shad & chrome shad. Another Lipless crank I do really well with is the Rapala one knocker in 3/4 & 1/4 yellow perch, and I have one that I bought a couple years back that I cant find anywhere, its the 1/4 in a red craw color, the back is a dark brown that fades into bright red sides w/a bright orange belly. I catch bigger largemouth with the 3/4 yellow perch during the summer jigging it in deep water, but I catch more species & numbers of fish with the craw pattern, ill try to load a pic of it up on the site. Another Lipless crank I really like is the Live Target Golden Shiner, Last March I caught a 14" Rainbow trout using the Live Target.

I like the 1/2oz in sexy shad. My favorite lipless cranks though are the owner mira vibes. Baby bass is my go to color.

1/2 oz gold sexy shad is my favorite :laugh7:

None of the ones mentioned. I like bluegill, and the oranage craw ok, but it's still not my go to.One person here knows mine, but if he starts flapping his gums, I'll tell every one what his is....LMAO.

I like any of them as long as it's a ghost color Excaliber XRK50 :eyebrows: . If I'm using a RES it's a 1/2 bleeding Tennessee shad, chrome sexy, or clear sexy.

Bone color has been good when the bass are chasing bait fish in dingier water. 1/4 oz RES are great in ponds.

Gold black back

Chartreuse Sexy Shad or Sexy Ghost Minnow.

Shad & Bleeding Shad from late summer to winter. Bluegill from early spring to summer.

I really like the ones that are chrome and shaped like a rattle trap hahah

My only luck has been with a chrome sexy shad

I like Mojarra, Japanese Shad, Bluegill, Sexy Ghost, Sexy Shad & Gold Chartruse if I had to limit it to a few.

Even though there are no Pumpkinseed Gills in my waters....it works well as a replacement for Threadfin Shad in my waters....give it a try

I like Mojarra, Japanese Shad, Bluegill, Sexy Ghost,

Send those ones to me, they don't work, and I will get rid of them for you.

You can never go wrong with chrome/blue or a crawfish color.

This one has been working great for me but Northerns like them more than Bass :Idontknow:

That's bleeding gizzard shad. Another one of my favorites.
