So like many of you I've thrown plastic craws of all shapes and sizes over the years either Texas rigged or on the back of a jig. Since I'm trying to imitate a craw I stick with the usual colors: green pumpkin, black, blue or brown. Then the other night I was watching old fishing videos on YouTube and I ran across a video of Guido Hibdon on American Angler on Alamo lake. In the video the host is pitching to bushes with what appeared to be a salt pepper Guido bug with chartreuse claws. Anybody use unique craw colors?

I dont know what pepper color is but I use to throw brown Larew salt craws with chartreuse pincers a lot .

Junebug Blue Claws

Green Pumpkin Blue Claws 

Red Shad 

Motoroil 

White

Black Neon 

Sprayed Grass

Sapphire Blue Texas Rigged 

One I like that under water looked realistic to me was Zman Orange/Green Pumpkin. Its the only plastic with orange on it that I own but it looks really good in this laminate.

I fish sapphire blue a lot. 

 

Berkley had a color in the Havoc Pitboss called Lime Purple Passion that I've caught a ton of fish on. I still have about 30 bags I bought when I found out they were cutting that color.

Smoke S & P with Orange was a predominate Color C Lector combination for water with fair to good clarity.

Who knows what a bass thinks a soft plastic craws is??? It moves so it’s prey.

Anything with orange, orange and black, or peanut butter jelly

I only have a few Guido Bugs left. My all time favorite craw. 3” version. I remember that craw you are describing. Shame they quit making them. Had all the crawdad characteristics but not overly lifelike. 

Just as deadly a Salt & Pepper Gitzit Fat Tube 3.5"
