Due to a rather large order I have recieved I will be buying a large volume of hootchies. I only need round 8 different variations to fill the order. Because of a minimum order requirement I will actually have to buy more than I need to fill the order. Blah, blah, blah. clif-notes version, I'm going to have to buy a chit ton of hootchies.

I need a little help selecting some good ones. what are some good color schemes/sizes for the sound or whashington waters......?

As a result of this I will most likely have hootchies for sale at a smokin price when it all settles down..

Don't troll hootchies a bunch anymore for chinook. But when I do, the 8142 (OG142) standard green spatterback (aka green hornet) is usually what goes swiming first.

My favorite is the M71, glow white squid.
Second would go to the N36, glow needle squid.

Both are the 4.5 inchers for the Canal. 2cents

Gotta agree with the OG142. It should definately be in your line-up if you are tageting WA anglers.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Sounds like, purple haze, army truck and variations of greens/glows are a must. I will be keeping an eye on this thread. I'm planning on ordering next week.
