i really like lucky craft's copper green also, i have a mini SR in that color and it crushes.

I buy all my LC from the largest LC supplier in the US. Sometimes I'll call up and try to get a specific color in a mini sr or BDS 1 and they tell me that more and more colors in those models are being discontinued because they aren't selling. I can't for the life of me figure that one out. I catch the fool out of fish on those sizes.??? :-?

1. Something that looks like a shad.

2. Something that looks like a crawdad.

3. Something that looks like a bluegill/green sunfish/redear/bream.

One of my favorite times to use a squarebill is when the gills start to bed on my lake here.  Just start bouncing them around and then pull the crank off the banks into the deeper water.  Get ready to hold on.

Tennessee Shad

Chartreuse Black Back

That'll about cover it right there

It's hard to beat what 5BL chose. Those are two solid choices

Black/chart.

Black/pearl

Blue back Chartreuse (Parrot?)

Black Back Chartreuse

Blue Back Chart is different for different companies.  It's not parrot in Rapala though.  In the Xcalibur series it's called Foxy Mama.  In addition to the blue back it has a white belly and an orange stripe down each side.

dtfat 3 is a great bait, but also try the new spro fat johns.  But for favorite color, i would say either ghost or a natural shad type color.

#1 - Ghost Minnow

#2 - Firetiger
