Heddon Colors

Most of us have probably fished with a Heddon surface lure at some point. I still do. My best colors have been in the Zara Spook- Original Shore Minnow, Flitter Shad,  Black Shore Minnow, and Clear.                                       In the Tiny Torpedo- Black Shore Minnow, Clear, Bullfrog, Shad, and Yellow Shore Minnow.                                      What colors have you had good success on in the Heddon lineup?

What great old school lures. I still fish them. The Spooks and the Tiny Torpedoes. Not sure how many colors I have but black, Shad and leopard frog have always worked great.

My only good day ever on a spook was the flitter Shad super spook jr!  

 

I did win a tournament on that bait that day however so it bears mentioning.

 

Caught around 20 fish on the only one I have and still toss the very same one occasionally but have never replicated the success I had that particular day with it.

The Crazy Crawler has yet to be blooded, at least in my hands (recent acquisition).  
 

The River Runt Spook has been victimized by Esox critters multiple times and will even take a smallie on occasion.

I had a great time throwing a crawler (Jackall Micro Pompadour) this year. 

 

They're just so much fun to throw!

For Zara Spooks....I use pretty much all models from the smallest one, one knocker, chuggin, saltwater etc...

 

Favorite colors are Bone, Clear, Sexy Shad with orange belly, Red head white body, black shore? (White markings on black body) and chart/White, Chart/Black. Also have a chrome/black I like as well. Firetiger patterns as well....

 

Also go for the baby bass color for all size torpedo's, still one of my favorite topwaters in Florida as it casts better than a devils horse and like the sizes & profile, feel they are rarely thrown. Clear and think I have a rainbow trout pattern I throw alot. Most paint is gone. 

 

Only other heddon Lures I have in my box are the Spittin Image topwater walking bait and poppin image, swimin' image shallow crank and all are in same shad pattern, really old, never throw em anymore but should cause they catch fish...

 

Of course, A black jitterbug as well....Don't believe I have any Hula Poppers or other Heddon Lures.
