Thinking about fishing the Rat-L-Trap tournament on Guntersville on February 7, 2016. I'm not familiar with the lake (never fished it). Any advice on colors that are particularly good over there?

As close to this Spot color as you can get:

In the Tap colors, that would be Tequila Sunrise.

When I worked at Bass Pro everyone headed to Guntersville in the spring were buying red traps. I can't remember the exact color name but it was red...I think it was Rayburn Red but not positive.

Yep, Rayburn Red. A lot of lure companies have lures with that color name and not in just lipless crankbaits.

Rat-L-Trap was the first I think.

 

What about Winter??? Red in February? or closer to spawn?

I heard neon pink rattle traps consistently catch 10+lb bass all the time

It may be early for the red traps but I would still give it a try. Chrome/blue, chrome/black usually work with clear water/sunny days and a chartreuse color for dirty water. Feburary is a tuff month to predict color wise but I would have the above colors with me...Good Luck
