jimglo Parr Registered: 08/05/02 Posts: 52 Loc: Longview Washingtion	I just started doing the bobber and jig think and love it. I picked up a Dave Vedder Lami and used it this weekend and had some back lashes but didin't have tot do any cutting of line so that was good. I use pink and white with a pink pearl head. I had to make the paint my self. I mixed pink with white pearl. This is a powder paint I mix. Then I use a pearl vinel coating. This makes the pink more pink and more pearl. The coating also helps protect against chipping. I use a lot of pink and white. I was wondering and playing around with different colors in different conditions. That is purple during direct sun light and maybe purple and black when it is over case and muddy but I have not found a combination that works better than the pink. There have been days when I thow some other color than pink and then go to pink and get a fish. I was wondering if any have found a comination of colors and conditions that has worked for you?

Buck Juvenile at Sea Registered: 01/17/02 Posts: 234 Loc: Tumwater Wa	Pearl white head or pearl pink head. Flo pink body/ cerise. Black tail. Or cerise body with white/orange tail. Shrimp pink with white tail or black! I try to keep it simple, and I mix other colors as well. I think the different contrasts help. Buck

chromeslayer Fry Registered: 01/22/03 Posts: 35 Loc: Chehalis, WA	Peach/Pink/White/Purple/Red in any variation. Caught them on just about anything. Like to use a white tail on most and then use the Pink Shrimp Scented Special Mix Scent on them. Gives the white a little pink color. Fish love it. _________________________ "Fishing is all luck, some of us just know how to get lucky"

starfisher Smolt Registered: 11/06/02 Posts: 78 Loc: Bainbridge Island	It is my understanding that if you use one color you will catch most all of your fish on it! Black, Black and more Blacke Starfisher...just another bottom hugger. _________________________ Just another bottom fish
