When fishing beds, do yall have a bag of white soft plastics on deck in case they are not taking usual colors? Is the white more for the fisherman so he can see it on the bed, or is it for ticking off the fish?

I keep some in my bag at all times. I've seemed to have better luck with dark colors tho

One of my top producers in 2014 was the Rage Tail Structure bug fished

on a Chatterbait, Rage Blade and Wobble Head, white on white.

 

 

 

When I fish beds the first color is always white.

I will rotate between a bb cricket and then a beaver/bug of some kind usually a sweet beaver or rage craw.

Haven't tried the Rage structure bug yet, but will at the Nation's next week.

I do that because I can see a definite difference in thier attitude toward white than any other color.

Thats not to say that other color's won't catch a bedding fish, they will and have, but for some reason white makes em a little nuts at first.

White is usually the call for visablilty.

I remember Jacob Powroznik (however that's spelled) talking about his win in the elite series last year. He was trying to catch a 7 1/2 pounder on a bed. Time was running out until the weigh-in on the last day. He had worked it [the bed] with every soft plastic he could think of. He finally decided to try a white color. BANG. First cast, she ate it and he won the tournament.

The only white soft plastic I use is the Super Fluke.  Everything else is natural color, or darker.

Hmm... I wonder what a white lizard will do then. May need to try that out

Same here. I have a few Yamamoto "white" slim senkos, 

otherwise, I rarely fish white soft plastics.

 

I've had great success with Zoom watermelon gold

lizards - wacky rigged, no weight, when bed fishing, 

white will be added to my arsenal this year, methinks.

Did we not just have a white color thread a few hours ago ??? http://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-forums/topic/152719-white-baits/
