Your best worm colors

Featured Replies

Overall, what has most consistently been your top producing worm colors?

Watermelon Red and and anything with predominantly purple are my two main productive colors.

I like watermelon red magic and green pumpkin magic.

It's the same answer to the question, which color do you throw the most?

A blackish worm with bluish highlights

Colors that are a combination of green and blue, like Yum "Bream" and SK "Moon Juice" or "Okeechobee Craw." Second place would be purple colors, like Morning Dawn. Junebug is the go-to in dirty water.

Purples including all the variants like tequila sunrise are first followed closely by blues . I catch much more with them than pumpkins and melons , and  I have given  the pumpkins and melons a fair shot .

Depends on the worm ?

 

Camouflage, black-n-blue tail, watermelon neon, gooseberry, red shad, red bug, black neon, that'll do for now.

1.Green pumpkin.   (Far away the leader) 

2.Watermelon /red (close second) 

3.And the Morning Dawn and Aaron's Magic colors are becoming my favorites in any water clarity.    

 

Honorable mentions-  occochobee craw, June bug, blue saphore/ black, red shad, pumpkin seed, and motor oil when I can find it. 

 

But like catt said, depends on the worm.

I throw green pumpkin or a variant of it (red fleck, blue fleck, magic, etc) 90% of the time, so it goes without saying that it accounts for the majority of my catches. Other than that, something with blue tones (low blow, sprayed grass, junebug, etc)

green pumpkin and june bug

 

loving me some june bug right now especially.

black.  Got a lot of Green Pumpkin because that color is supposed to be very good.  Not for me.  :(

Green pumpkin or browns, with a little red flake.

 

For deeper, black with some blue flake.

Green pumpkin and chartreuse pumpkin.

Purple, junebug, red bug, and watermelon seed.

If I could only have one worm color, it would be red shad. It works in stained and clear water for me.

Sprayed grass, watermelon black flake have done it for me.

I like grape, purple and blues.

For me over the years it's been 3 types of colors: purplish like tequila sunrise or blue fleck...black emerald...and the oddball nobody has probably ever heard of green pumpkin. Specifically yamamoto and zoom green pumpkin which in my eyes are more brown.

Something that looks kind of green and something that looks kind of black/blue. The details don’t matter. The only specific color I have found that truly stands out as a fantastic performer is a Zman ZinkerZ in Coppertruese.  When all else fails, this catches. 

Historically a Pumpkin colored worm IE Burkley gulp crawler or zoom mag swamp crawler.  
 

Recently black/blue flake has been coming on strong but, I also think Its because I finally figured out the definition of what is clear, stained, dirty  and chocolate milk.  I tried force feeding green pumpkin colors in Water that was actually more suited for black/flake

I carry maybe 10 or 15 different colors of the Berkley 10 " power worms.  This spring, I bought a hundred count bag of Blue Fleck.  I think that is the only color  and brand of 10"  worm that I got wet last year.  The only reason I haven't opened the big bag of Blue Fleck worms yet is that I haven't used up the half dozen regular size bags of 10" Blue Fleck worms that still reside in my 10" worm bag yet.

 

Edit - on further review, I guess I answered the original post of what is my favorite worm color.
