Picked one of those up a couple months ago.  Have gotten a few 14-15"ers on it.  Comes through wood quite well.  I put a swimbait trailer and was surprised that those little guys hit something so long so aggressively. 

 

As to the OP, I like a red blade when it's muddy.

That's funny because I just built something very similar about a month ago.

The water I most commonly fish stays murky all year . Bright chartreuse and white are the colors me and everyone else uses,  early in the year .  One year I was using a bright spinnerbait ,  post-spawn and saw bass that were eyeing the lure but not take it . The bass that I did catch were barely hooked . I switched skirts to a more subdued color and the bass responded well to the new color . Every year since I kept the spinnerbait bite going when other people put them away by simply using duller colors .
