Your best worm colors

I depends on a few things for me. In big worms like a ribbon tail, I like variations of purple, like tequila sunrise or plain black. In Trick Worms I like the bright colors in off-color water when you're working it like a jerkbait for reaction strikes. But if you're getting finessy with it, I like the watermelons and pumkins. I'm usually getting finessy in clearer water with the smaller 4.5" worm. There's no such thing as "clear water" in most places I go. I also like black/blue flake.

Pumpkin + Green Flake (#1, but hard to find)

Pumpkinseed

Green Pumpkin

Green Pumpkin + Chartreuse Tail/tip

Junebug

Red Shad

Motor Oil

Green Pumpkin.

 

If they won't eat that or my shallow reservoir of fishing knowledge decides the water is too muddy, I'll tie on Junebug.

Green Pumpkin , WM Red , June Bug , Plum Apple , Blue Fleck , Tequila Sunrise and Red Bug all will see summer action on the starting team . Down on the AAA farm teams are combo colors such as Bama Bug , Okeechobee Craw and Texas Craw (half GP / half Red Bug combo) ready to be called up.

Either June Bug or a Senko in green pumpkin with large copper fleck and a chartreuse tail.  Summer Potomac bass seem to like that Senko and a bubble gum worm.

I have done pretty well with a darker/natural color most of the time like green pumpkin.  There are a couple of lakes around here that I fish regularly where the water is quite murky and then I need to use a bright colored version like white or chartreuse.

Watermelon Red. 

Top three lately gotta be purple-ish (morning dawn or plum), chartreuse pumpkin, and motor oil.  I don't throw a ton of worms, but these have been my 2020 choices and they've worked.

Green pumpkin and solid black are what I use most often.

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.

Moon Juice such a underrated color one of my favorites if I need a bite and using soft plastics. Chameleon is another great one from strike king in the rage bug.
