Sapphire blue color

Featured Replies

I know a lot of folk use this color as a trailer color but any of you use this a stand alone color?  Worms,craws, etc and how did you fare? I think I would do ok in stain water.

I gave up on extremely bright plastics like pure sapphier.  Just never seemed to work for me.  It just may be Potomac bass.

Blue has never been a good color for me going back 30 years. Started with Rapala minnows as the black back killed them but they wouldn't touch the blue.

Mann's Blueberry is a bright blue color worm and works good. By sapphire blue do mean blue neon or Rage Tail Sapphire blue? Usually blue neon is used as a highlite color vain in soft platics in lieu of a solid color but works as a solid color.

Zoom adds silver flake otherwise very similar shade of blue as Mann's blueberry. It will work if you use it.

Sapphire blue is one of my most productive colors that I use in the following lures

 

Zoom Ultra Vibe Speed Craw (texas rigged)

Zoom Super Speed Craw (texas rigged and jig trailer)

Zoom Big Salty Chunk and Super Chunk (jig trailer)

 

Also a Strike King Blue Sapphire Rage Craw has bee really productive for me the past 2-3 years either texas rigged or as a jig trailer.

By itself.... not much success for me on straight sapphire blue. A black or green pumpkin back, sapphire blue belly laminate has been effective at times.

I don't use it as a stand alone color.  I will use it as a jig trailer and when laminated with green pumpkin.  The Okeechobee Craw has been a good producer in stained waters.

Sapphire blue/backwater blue/swampwater blue, all very similar and some of my most productive colors. I make jigs and bladed jigs in thos colors that work great. Beavers from Strike King, Reactions Innovations, and Big Bite Baits (100 pk) are in my boat in those colors. I've got sapphire blue trick works, 10" worms, baby brush hogs, flipping tubes, craws. It's a killer color as a stand a lone.
